I want to make a part of an image transparent, I tried the code below, even tried many constants as COMPOSITE_DSTOUT, but all didn't work, does anyone know how to?
$fooImage->newImage(256, 256, new ImagickPixel('transparent'));
$Image->compositeImage($fooImage, Imagick::COMPOSITE_DSTOUT, $offsetX, offsetY);
I tested the code below, just got yellow with black, not transparent:
$width = 256;
$height = 256;
$image = new Imagick();
$image->newImage($width, $height, new ImagickPixel('yellow'));
$x = 50;
$y = 100;
$fooWidth = 100;
$fooHeight = 60;
//Create a new transparent image of the same size
$mask = new Imagick();
$mask->newImage($width, $height, new ImagickPixel('none'));
$mask->setImageFormat('png');
//Draw onto the new image the areas you want to be transparent in the original
$draw = new ImagickDraw();
$draw->setFillColor('black');
$draw->rectangle($x, $y, $x + $fooWidth, $y + $fooHeight);
$mask->drawImage($draw);
//Composite the images
$image->compositeImage($mask, Imagick::COMPOSITE_DSTOUT, 0, 0,
Imagick::CHANNEL_ALPHA);
$image->setImageFormat('png');
$image->writeImage($path);
Got black inside yellow, not transparent in yellow
