SYNOPSIS

package foo;
use Meta::Image::Magick qw();
my($image)=Meta::Image::Magick->new();
my($thumbnail)=$object->thunb(50,50);

DESCRIPTION

Since I found there were a few methods I wanted that were missing from Image::Magick I inherited from it and extended it. This is the result. The original motivation was the creation of well scaled thumbnails.

FUNCTIONS

Thumb($$$)

FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

Thumb($$$)

This method will create a thumbnail with x and y as the maximum x and y size. It will make the image the largest possible within that frame without distorting it. The image that will be returned may be smaller than x and y dimensions but only in a single dimension.

BUGS

None.
