Imagick::mergeImageLayers — Merges image layers
Merges image layers into one. This method is useful when working with image
formats that use multiple layers such as PSD. The merging is controlled using
the layer_method which defines how the layers are merged.
This method is available if Imagick has been compiled against ImageMagick version 6.3.7 or newer.
Returns an Imagick object containing the merged image.
Throws ImagickException on error.
Example #1 Imagick::mergeImageLayers()
<?php
function mergeImageLayers($layerMethodType, $imagePath1, $imagePath2) {
$imagick = new \Imagick(realpath($imagePath));
$imagick2 = new \Imagick(realpath($imagePath2));
$imagick->addImage($imagick2);
$imagick->setImageFormat('png');
$result = $imagick->mergeImageLayers($layerMethodType);
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $result->getImageBlob();
}
?>
