Drawing Ellipses



Imagemagick can be used to draw various geometric shapes such as circles,rectangles.and 


polygons

Here I will show show you how to make ellipse.

Make background of size 350x205  (meta= white or none)

Go to Draw and paste the following parameters in the coordinate box

+230+205 +200+140 +0+360

[First number – moves the ellipse to right (increase) or left (decrease) ]

[Second number – shift the structure to up (decrease) or down (increase)]

[Thirds number- decides on the horizontal width]

[Fourth number – changes width vertically]

[The third set of numbers 0+360 should remain constant in order to draw a complete structure 

from 0 and to  360. Changing 0 will insert gap in the ellipse] 

Choose ellipse from the dropdown list.

Use any fill color and stroke color. I used orange.

The stroke width will decide the thickness of the structure. Here I used 9.

Now Press Draw.

If it is drawn on a transparent background, you can use glitter or any other tile to fill in the border 

of the  eclipse.  Here I used the following glitter tile. I uploaded the file to composite page and 

chose atop. I then  checked the tile across and down the image of canvas and press 

composite.
