How does one find the image width and height in pixels?
image.x_resolution and image.y_resolution both return 0 for some reason.
require 'rmagick'
img = Magick::Image.ping( 'demo.png' ).first
width = img.columns
height = img.rows
Note .ping method imported from comments. If you need to read the image to process it, then use Magick::Image.read( 'demo.png' ).first - the use of ping works in this stand-alone code and speeds processing up for some image types where IM can just read a header block. This is useful for cases where you don't need to load the image itself to do work on it.
