Limitations

WideImage is meant to be an easy-to use image manipulation library for the most commonly used operations. Its purpose is neither to offer an object-oriented interface to the GD library, nor to cover up for GD's bugs and lack of certain features.

Currently not supported, but planned

• drawing (shapes, lines),
• text.

See Roadmap for more.

No support planned

• GIF animations,
• advanced drawing (i.e. rotated alpha-blended polygons with textures).

You can still write your own code or use another library to manipulate images through the wiImage::getHandle() method, which returns the php image resource.
