Wrong(?) behavior of convert -geometry

[naoliv]

Hi!

From this Debian bug report, the user says that using ImageMagick 6.2.4 02/10/07 he is able to resize a picture when using:

Code: Select all

convert -geometry 150x150+0+0 infile.jpg outfile.jpg

And that with newer versions of ImageMagick (tested with 6.4.1-3) it doesn't work.
The help message of both versions (the old one and the current) is the same about geometry.

Did the behavior of geometry changed, is it wrong now or is the help message outdated, please?

Thank you!

Use -resize instead of -geometry. For a discussion see 'Why did the command line style change' at http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/basics/#why.
