Softening edges

[cookienana]

Is there a function to soften edges of images, and if so, can you tell me how to do it?
Thank you,

What exactly do you mean by "the edges" of the image? Do you mean edges of features in the image or rectangular boundary of the image?


see -blur

Code: Select all

convert image -blur 0x1 result

change the 1 to some larger value if you want more blurring/softening.

In the future, please identify your version of IM and platform. Thanks
