bool Imagick::sketchImage( $radius, $sigma, $angle )
Parameters: This function accepts three parameters as mentioned above and described below:
- $radius: This parameter is used to set the radius of the Gaussian, in pixels, not counting the center pixel.
- $sigma: This parameter is used to set the standard deviation of the Gaussian, in pixels.
- $angle: This parameter is used to set the angle to apply the effect.
Return Value: This function returns True on success.
