Dear fellaz,

After distributed rendering with cluster, I need to reassemble image from
columns into complete image. All columns are dimensioned 400x300 (in example),
but one contains columns 0 to 99 active, second 100 to 199 ... and final 300 to
399.

$ povray +FN +W400 +H300 +SC00 +EC99 +Omodel-000000.png radiosity3a.pov
$ povray +FN +W400 +H300 +SC100 +EC199 +Omodel-000001.png radiosity3a.pov
$ povray +FN +W400 +H300 +SC200 +EC299 +Omodel-000002.png radiosity3a.pov
$ povray +FN +W400 +H300 +SC300 +EC399 +Omodel-000003.png radiosity3a.pov

I would like to reassemble images model-000000.png to model-0.000003.png (but
not limited to 4 columns) into a resulting image of entire rendered scene.

Many thanks in return. I did lots of research with ImageMagick commands, but at
no avail - it remained stubborn in doing everything but what I wanted.

Best rgds,
Marvin

How about an orthographic POV-Ray scene to stitch them all together?

neo-00000[0123].png work as expected, but flatten creates havoc. :-(

Any idea?

Did I miscompile ImageMagick? But with optipng I also receive diagnostics.

you need to add -page +0+0 after each source image

convert neo-000000.png -page +0+0 neo-000001.png -page +0+0
neo-000002.png -page +0+0 neo-000003.png -page +0+0 -background black
-flatten real.png

You seems to have rendered with 3.6 or previous.
My initial reply was assuming (and I tested it) a 3.7RC3.

There is a bright line of white pixel on each left side of partial image.

How shoud that bright line of white pixel hinder flattening? I don't have enough
experience with ImageMagick. I see your point, but I don't realize where this
bright line came from in the first place. The partial images came directly from
radiosity3a.pov rendered scene, I made no intervention as to insert a white
line.

Is there a way to cut images and later reassemble stripes pf columns with
convert or composite -adjoin?

I trust you.
Can you confirm the version of povray (3.6) ?
(or maybe it's a radiosity issue ?)

I tested the initial solution with a scene in 3.7, without radiosity and
got no white line on left side. I'm going to render radiosity3a.pov per
slice to check

I do not know. I knew about -flatten.
Maybe you can try to perform the whole think in one line such as:

convert model-000000.png -transparent black -page +0+0 \
 model-000001.png -transparent black -page +0+0 \
 model-000002.png -transparent black -page +0+0 \
 model-000003.png -transparent black -page +0+0 \
...
 model-000158.png -transparent black -page +0+0 \
-background black -flatten model.png

If you want to cut image from picture, you might want to play with -size
and -page to set the framesize and move the original inside the final frame.

Yep! radiosity3.pov in 3.6 get an artefact of a white line on the left
for partial column rendering.

On 3.7, it get a blocky artefact on the right (bigger), but it is
better, as long as you provide the slices from left to right in the
command line of convert, each new picture covers the previous blocky
column. No problem in 3.7 if used with care.

A real issue for 3.6.2 (tested on windows)
I did not try to provide the picture in right to left to see if they
would cover each other.

Notice: radiosity seems to not like too much partial rendering.
(or may it's just me)

So, it should be
 +SC001 +EC100
 +SC101 +EC200
 +SC201 +EC300
 +SC301 +EC400

For slices from 3.6, the order in convert should be from right to left
to avoid the white line. And do not forget the "-page +0+0" for each of
them.

Alternately, you can just clip out the geometry, then montage them togeth
er.

convert model-000000.png -extent 100x300+0+0 -geometry 100x300+0+0 trim-0
.png

convert model-000001.png -extent 100x300+100+0 -geometry 100x300+0+0 trim

convert model-000002.png -extent 100x300+200+0 -geometry 100x300+0+0 trim

convert model-000003.png -extent 100x300+300+0 -geometry 100x300+0+0 trim

montage +frame +shadow +label -tile 4x1 -geometry 100x300+0+0 trim-0.png
