ABOUT
-----
RNOEffects is a simple image processing program with a focus on good batch
conversion options and alpha channel based effects.
FEATURES
--------
- Around 30 different image processing effects including drop shadows,
elliptical crop, and other effects that would need several steps for other
similar programs
- Drawing options for brushes, text, lines, ellipses, boxes, and arrows
- Batch converter and image joining/combining tools
- All effects can be applied to images in a freely selectable order in a
batch conversion or image joining/combining process
- Unlimited number of images can be joined into a single image
- Supports saving to PNG, JPEG, GIF, ILBM, BMP, and all Amiga icon formats
- Can save multiple images as a single PDF file
- ARexx support
REQUIREMENTS
------------
- AmigaOS 3.0, fast CPU (68020 compatible), lots of memory
- MUI 3.8 or later (http://aminet.net/package/util/libs/mui38usr)
- TextEditor.mcc 15.47 (http://aminet.net/search?query=mcc+texteditor)
- codesets.library (http://aminet.net/search?query=codesets)
- guigfx.library (http://aminet.net/package/dev/misc/guigfxlib)
- render.library (http://aminet.net/search?query=renderlib), v32 is probably
the best for <040 CPUs
- reqtools.library (http://aminet.net/package/util/libs/ReqToolsLib)
INSTALLATION
------------
Copy the whole directory anywhere you want and just launch the program
USAGE NOTES
-----------
- Next and previous images in a directory can be loaded by pressing the
up/down arrow keys or PageUp/PageDown keys.
- Use the left arrow key for Undo and the right arrow key for the Redo.
- Crop and Draw effect positioning can be set with a mouse press over an image
- The Keep mode (in the cycle gadet at the top right corner) retains the
main window size even if the content resolution changes.
- The Undo/Redo buffer requires quite a lot of memory, so undo levels are set
to a minimum for the OS3 version, but can be altered from the Settings menu
- The Background effect draws into transparent areas of an image. Transparency
is indicated with being able to see the checkered pattern in the program.
- The Alpha option in the Draw effect makes the effect to draw into an image's
alpha channel instead of the colour channel. It can be used to add or remove
transparency in images, such as, to make a part of an image see-through.
- Multiple effects can be applied to each image in a batch conversion process
when joining/combining images, or when creating a selected state image for
an icon. In all cases the order of the applied effects can be changed from
the Batch Convert window.
- Some icon formats have fall-back image(s) in the original AmigaOS icon
format. These fall-back icons are created automatically by the program.
All icon images (frames) can be previewed in the Icon options window.
- The program can store an image within the system's clipboard, but may not
preserve transparency information on all systems. The program's internal
buffer stores an exact copy of an image, so is better for internal use.
COMMAND LINE OPTIONS AND ICON TOOLTYPES
---------------------------------------
RNOEffects uses non-standard command line arguments. Arguments must be given
in the form of (note the "-" prefix): -argument parameter
Allowed arguments:
-file <file> . . . . - Opens a picture file at startup
-defdir <dir> . . . . - Sets the initial directory to open files
-args . . . . . . . . - Shows the allowed arguments
Example:
RNOEffects -file "Work:Pics/Some picture.png"
The same arguments can be used as icon tooltypes, by omitting the "-" prefix.
Examples:
DEFDIR=Work:Pics
FILE=Work:Pics/MyPhoto.jpg
