Image Magick error

Post by prabalroy »

I'm receiving the following error while executing ImageMagick 7.0.4 Q16 (32-bit)

Invalid parameter - - density
While executing
"exec $magick_ppm -quiet -density $Density -loop 100 -delay 30 -trim +dispose Background $Input_file $Output_file"

Would anyone help me to solve this issue ?

Thanks

When you installed Image Magic did you choose to include the "legacy programs"?

I was trying to work on 7.4 of HYSPLIT Tutorial (Single Particle Animation) :
"
3.To see all the frames in a single animated graphic, similar to a trajectory, press the Concentration / Utilities / Postscript to Image menu tab to open the ImageMagick conversion menu. Select the Animate and crop radio-buttons, and move the slider bar to a higher resolution (140) for a better quality image. After executing the conversion, the window closes with no message, but you will find the animated GIF, concplot.gif in the working directory. The animation is a little jumpy due to the atmospheric turbulence affecting this single particle trajectory"

When I click on the execution menu - that error message pop-up every time.

I have tried it in my system and it works just fine.
Please reset your GUI by clicking on the Reset button and try it again. Sometimes the GUI keeps some variables in memory and tries to use it in another call.
