Just FYI
I figured it out - there is an $options['canvas'] option which accepts,
amongst other things, a handle to an image resource. Trivial then to use
imagecreate() and imagecolorallocate() to create a white-background
starting point.
Sorry for wasting everyone's time
Cheers

Guys
Without hacking the pear library, does anyone know of any way (using
the API) to change the background color of an image created with
Image_Text from black?
The bg is black because the image resource is created using
imagecreatetruecolor() which returns a black image - this is on some
of lines 550-569 in the pear source. I could change this, but I'm sure
Tobias must have written in some way for this to be changed - the docs
are of course minimal, and I can't find anything in the source.
The text is nice and yellow, as specified in the code below, the only
problem is changing the background from the lovely black default.
Can anyone help me out? Code follows:
Cheers
Chris
-
require_once 'Image/Text.php';
$options = array( 'image_type' => IMAGETYPE_JPEG,
'font_file' => 'flc.ttf',
'width' => 100,
'height' => 200,
'font_path' => '/path/to/font/file/',
'max_lines' => 1,
'x' => 2,
'y' => 2,
'font_size' => 12,
);
$hImage =& Image_Text::construct("hello world", $options);
$hImage->setColor('#00', 0);
$hImage->init();
$hImage->render();
$hImage->display();
?>
