The image can be scaled arbitrarily, and 1-bit raster images can be (1) inverted, i.e., black pixels (on) becomes white (off) and vice versa, or (2) colorized, by assigning different foreground and background colors, and (3) made transparent where one of back- or foreground is painted only. As an option, the user may choose to convert colored raster images to grayscale using TV's YIQ-transformation. For raster files, the user can select which color to be made transparent. The user may also choose to replicate the image which, when preceded by appropriate clip paths, may allow larger custom-designed fill patterns to be implemented (the **-Gp** mechanism offered in most GMT programs is limited to rasters smaller than 146 by 146). Required Arguments ------------------ *imagefile* This must be an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file or a raster image. An EPS file must contain an appropriate BoundingBox. A raster file can have a depth of 1, 8, 24, or 32 bits and is read via GDAL. Note: If GDAL was not configured during GMT installation then only Sun raster files are supported natively. You must then convert other formats to Sun raster files before use. Optional Arguments ------------------ .. _-D: **-D**\ [**g**\ \|\ **j**\ \|\ **J**\ \|\ **n**\ \|\ **x**]\ *refpoint*\ **+r**\ *dpi*\ **+w**\ [**-**]\ *width*\ [/*height*]\ [**+j**\ *justify*]\ [**+n**\ *nx*\ [/*ny*] ]\ [**+o**\ *dx*\ [/*dy*]] Sets reference point on the map for the image using one of four coordinate systems: (1) Use **-Dg** for map (user) coordinates, (2) use **-Dj** or **-DJ** for setting *refpoint* via a 2-char justification code that refers to the (invisible) map domain rectangle, (3) use **-Dn** for normalized (0-1) coordinates, or (4) use **-Dx** for plot coordinates (inches, cm, etc.). All but **-Dx** requires both **-R** and **-J** to be specified. By default, the anchor point on the scale is assumed to be the bottom left corner (BL), but this can be changed by appending **+j** followed by a 2-char justification code *justify* (see :doc:`pstext`). Note: If **-Dj** is used then *justify* defaults to the same as *refpoint*, if **-DJ** is used then *justify* defaults to the mirror opposite of *refpoint*. Add **+o** to offset the color scale by *dx*/*dy* away from the *refpoint* point in the direction implied by *justify* (or the direction implied by **-Dj** or **-DJ**). Specify image size in one of two ways: Use **+r**\ *dpi* to set the dpi of the image in dots per inch, or use **+w**\ [**-**]\ *width*\ [/*height*] to set the width (and height) of the image in plot coordinates (inches, cm, etc.). If *height* is not given, the original aspect ratio of the image is maintained. If *width* is negative we use the absolute value and interpolate image to the device resolution using the PostScript image operator. Optionally, use **+n**\ *nx*\ [/*ny*] to replicate the image *nx* times horizontally and *ny* times vertically. If *ny* is omitted, it will be identical to *nx* [Default is 1/1]. .. _-F: **-F**\ [\ **+c**\ *clearances*][\ **+g**\ *fill*][**+i**\ [[*gap*/]\ *pen*]][\ **+p**\ [*pen*]][\ **+r**\ [*radius*]][\ **+s**\ [[*dx*/*dy*/][*shade*]]] Without further options, draws a rectangular border around the image using **MAP_FRAME_PEN**; specify a different pen with **+p**\ *pen*. Add **+g**\ *fill* to fill the image box [no fill]. Append **+c**\ *clearance* where *clearance* is either *gap*, *xgap*\ /\ *ygap*, or *lgap*\ /\ *rgap*\ /\ *bgap*\ /\ *tgap* where these items are uniform, separate in x- and y-direction, or individual side spacings between scale and border. Append **+i** to draw a secondary, inner border as well. We use a uniform *gap* between borders of 2\ **p** and the **MAP_DEFAULTS_PEN** unless other values are specified. Append **+r** to draw rounded rectangular borders instead, with a 6\ **p** corner radius. You can override this radius by appending another value. Finally, append **+s** to draw an offset background shaded region. Here, *dx*/*dy* indicates the shift relative to the foreground frame [4\ **p**/-4\ **p**] and *shade* sets the fill style to use for shading [gray50]. .. _-J: .. |Add_-J| replace:: (Used only with **-p**) .. include:: explain_-J.rst_ .. include:: explain_-Jz.rst_ .. _-K: .. include:: explain_-K.rst_ .. _-M: **-M** Convert color image to monochrome grayshades using the (television) YIQ-transformation. .. _-O: .. include:: explain_-O.rst_ .. _-P: .. include:: explain_-P.rst_ .. _-R: .. |Add_-R| replace:: (Used only with **-p**) .. include:: explain_-R.rst_ .. |Add_-Rz| unicode:: 0x20 .. just an invisible code .. include:: explain_-Rz.rst_ .. _-U: .. include:: explain_-U.rst_ .. _-V: .. |Add_-V| unicode:: 0x20 .. just an invisible code .. include:: explain_-V.rst_ .. _-X: .. include:: explain_-XY.rst_ The following options are for 1-bit images only.
