Use
display -resize {width}x{height}+0+0 image.jpg
instead.
Yes, that's a workaround, but (a) that doesn't provide the same functionality as what -geometry is supposed to do, since -geometry is supposed to allow you to tell display to resize the image only if it needs to be resized to fit within the specified geometry, and -resize doesn't do that, and (b) -resize isn't even mentioned on the man page for display. So there appears to be both a documentation problem and a functionality problem. man ImageMagick will tell you about the -resize options. display -resize '640x480>' image.jpg will scale the picture down to 640x480 if it is larger than 640x480 |
I have ImageMagick-6.0.7.1-4. "display -geometry {width}x{height}+0+0 image.jpg" should display an image, scaled to the specified width and height (aspect ratio preserved), rooted at the top left corner of the screen. It used to do this. The scaling part no longer works -- the specified with and height are ignored and the image is displayed at full size.
