Imagick::sigmoidalContrastImage — Adjusts the contrast of an image
Description
bool Imagick::sigmoidalContrastImage ( bool $sharpen , float $alpha , float $beta [, int $channel = Imagick::CHANNEL_ALL ] )
Adjusts the contrast of an image with a non-linear sigmoidal contrast algorithm. Increase the contrast of the image using a sigmoidal transfer function without saturating highlights or shadows. Contrast indicates how much to increase the contrast (0 is none; 3 is typical; 20 is pushing it); mid-point indicates where midtones fall in the resultant image (0 is white; 50 is middle-gray; 100 is black). Set sharpen to TRUE to increase the image contrast otherwise the contrast is reduced.

Parameters
-
sharpen -
If true increase the contrast, if false decrease the contrast.
-
alpha -
The amount of contrast to apply. 1 is very little, 5 is a significant amount, 20 is extreme.
-
beta -
Where the midpoint of the gradient will be. This value should be in the range 0 to 1 - mutliplied by the quantum value for ImageMagick.
-
channel -
Which color channels the contrast will be applied to.
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success.
Examples
Example #1 Create a gradient image using Imagick::sigmoidalContrastImage() suitable for blending two images together smoothly, with the blending defined by $contrast and $the midpoint
<?php
function generateBlendImage($width, $height, $contrast = 10, $midpoint = 0.5) {
$imagick = new Imagick();
$imagick->newPseudoImage($width, $height, 'gradient:black-white');
$quanta = $imagick->getQuantumRange();
$imagick->sigmoidalContrastImage(true, $contrast, $midpoint * $quanta["quantumRangeLong"]);
return $imagick;
}
?> Errors/Exceptions
Throws ImagickException on error.
