'wordy' or 'quiet'.
If omitted, defaults to the opposite of the previous mode.sip_set_verbose('quiet') or simply
sip_quiet() prevents helper messages
from being issued by SIP functions such as imread, mogrify, and
others. It is useful when one wants to use those functions
inside a loop, for example.
sip_set_verbose('wordy') or simply
sip_wordy() causes helper messages
to be issued by SIP functions such as imread, mogrify, and
others. It is useful for debugging and for interactive usage.
sip_set_verbose() toggles/inverts the current mode.
The output is always the PREVIOUS verbose mode.
sip_quiet(); // shut up! [im,map] = imread(SIPDIR+'images/escher.png'); sip_wordy(); // verbose messages [im,map] = imread(SIPDIR+'images/escher.png'); //--------------------------------------------- // The following can be useful inside a script: previous_mode = sip_quiet(); im2 = mogrify(im,map,['-rotate','30']); // recall user's mode sip_set_verbose(previous_mode); |  |  |
