place_images

place multiple RGB images at specified positions in an output image

place_images output.rgb bg_colour input1.rgb x1 y1 input2.rgb x2 y2 ...

DESCRIPTION

place_images composites multiple RGB images into a single output image by placing each input image at the specified (x, y) position. The bg_colour argument sets the background colour for areas not covered by any input image.

Each input image is specified by its filename followed by the x and y coordinates (in pixels) of where its lower-left corner should be placed in the output. Any number of input images can be specified.

This tool is useful for creating composite visualizations, montages, or tiled displays of multiple slice images or renderings.

EXAMPLES

place_images montage.rgb black slice1.rgb 0 0 slice2.rgb 256 0 slice3.rgb 512 0
