About

This is a simple tool which uses OpenCV through its Java Binding JavaCV to generate a smoothed shadow on each image.

If you would pass this program an input image like

this would output

The ground truth image (how it is supposed to look like) was given by @merlinthered

Building

mvnw clean install

(This will install a Maven wrapper which requires you not to download and install Maven yourself)

Running

Note: this can only be run on windows because I found no good JNI Binding for https://pngquant.org/lib/. You have to compile it yourself and I would need to cross-compile it myself.

java -jar target/sublime-rainmeter-image-smoother-1.4.jar "path/to/input.png" "path/to/input2.png"
    

results into two files in the same directories as input and input2 with the postfix -shaded and compressed images with postfix -or8.
