I'm using wand 0.4.1 and want to place an image on top another. The crux is that the image to be placed is lets say 400px wide but I want it to stretch to a different width, lets say 700px. The image should be stretched correctly with the aspect ratio staying the same.
I thought I could somehow do it with composite, but didn't know how to, since the only option I seem to be able to pass is top and left.
My current code is like this:
bg_image = open(bg_image_url, 'rb')
fg_image = open(fg_image_url, 'rb')
with Image(file=bg_image) as bg:
with Image(file=fg_image) as fg:
bg.composite(fg, left=100, top=100)
bg.save(filename='composited_image.jpg')
How would I accomplish this with wand?
Wand's Transform is the method that I was looking for.
This can be used just right before the composite:
fg.transform(resize='300x') #resize 'fg' to a width of 300px
#and height is set dynamically,
#respecting the original aspect ratio
