Stack multiple images in semitransparent layers with imagemagick? -


what simple way stack multiple (~ 10) png images layers same transparency that's less 100% using 1 or 2 imagemagick commands?

the source images same size , not transparent.

i tried several variants of this:

composite -dissolve 50 in1.png in2.png -alpha set out.png

the best 1 image stacked semintransparent against solid. no success wildcards. i'm casual user of imagemagick. guess write script or simple program want multiple images, there may simple way in imagemagick already, , that's i'm hoping find.

modifying images okay, e.g. setting alpha value using command takes wildcard , stacking them.

there several ways in imagemagick, depending upon trying achieve. using version 6.9.9.12 q16 mac osx.

i have corrected commands fix typo in arguments of third example , included xenoid's suggested weights make first example below become equivalent other 2 each result same averaging images.

input image:

method 1: using alpha channel

convert checks.jpg \( lena2.jpg -alpha set -channel alpha -evaluate multiply 0.5 \) \( zelda3.jpg -alpha set -channel alpha -evaluate multiply 0.3333 \) -flatten result0.png

enter image description here

method 2: equal averaging (-evaluate-sequence mean)

convert checks.jpg lena2.jpg zelda3.jpg -evaluate-sequence mean result1.png

enter image description here

method 3: weighted averaging (-poly)

convert checks.jpg lena2.jpg zelda3.jpg -poly "0.33333,1 0.33333,1 0.33333,1" result2.png

the first number of pair weight , second number exponent, here 1. value of 2 weight squares.

command line - How can a Python program background itself? -

consider following python command-line program. doesn't work because incomplete, think illustrates problem: #!/usr/bin/python3 import multiprocessing pool = multiprocessing.pool() task in expensive_iterator_with_user_interaction(): pool.call_async(expensive_computation, (task,)) pool.close() print("dear user, may press ctrl-z , bg script.") pool.join() thus, problem scripts needs user input while it's launching expensive parallel processes. there moment when user interaction not needed anymore. then, ask user background process shell actions. however, can achieved program itself? (side note: core of problem entanglement of user input firing “expensive computations”. therefore, cannot separate both in 2 scripts, , letting 1 spawning other daemon.) the command screen may you. use screen -l create new session , run application. after inputting data, can press " ctrl-a " , press " d " on keyboard detach session. now...
