Tony's ramblings on Open Source Software, Life and Photography

Working On A Photo Manager

Published March 1, 2009, 2:23 am | by tony

I'm working on a photo manager for Linux with a kinetic scrolling feature in Python. So far so good. The thumbnails are actually being rendered, tilted and reflected by my code. Unfortunately Python can't do perspective transforms, only sheers, so you get a bit of a top-down view.

perspective transformation

I stumbled upon your site...

While you state that python has no perspective image transformation, I think PIL has this ability - but only the documentation about this is missing (see http://osdir.com/ml/python.image/2005-08/msg00003.html):

so you can at least select the transformation method PIL.Image.PERSPECTIVE which is 2.

cheers

I'll take a look and see what I can find! Thanks for the info - everything I've seen online said there was no perspective transform.
