[ImageToolbox] Adding text to the image not working.
Question
Forge

ImageToolbox
Forge component by João Quitério

Hi,

In our project we need to have possibility to render text over the image

I've tried " -pointsize 72 label:Hello  " in the options for Convert action but it returns the same image without any text. Should the component support this commands https://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/draw/ ? Or how should I modify it to have the support?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Mykola,

Try the following, -gravity south -annotate 0 'You text here'.

-annotate is used exactly to place text in an image but it seems to require the usage of -gravity to indicate where the text will be placed. Then you can use other parameters to set -font, -pointsize, -fill, -stroke, etc.

I've tested it with the command line but it should work the same for the extension.

Cheers
