Painting and annotation

Add precise text, arrows, shapes, and image composites, or apply deterministic crop, resize, and transform operations.

Create a canvas or edit a static PNG, JPEG, or WebP using explicit drawing and geometry. The painter executes the bundled editor and verifies the resulting file, making this suitable for labels, diagrams, markups, and predictable image transformations.

Package version 0.1.0-beta.6

Included with Faye Image Utility

When to use

Use this when the requested result can be specified as deterministic drawing, compositing, or pixel operations.

What to provide

  • A supported source image or new-canvas dimensions.
  • Exact text, geometry, colors, fonts or placement guidance, and an output path if you have a preferred destination.

Expected results

  • A real PNG, JPEG, or WebP file with the requested deterministic edits.
  • The output location and verification of the visible result.

Requirements and limits

Before you start

  • The bundled faye_image_painter must be available to execute the editor.
  • Python 3.10 or newer with venv/ensurepip.
  • Pillow 12.3.0 or newer with LittleCMS2, accessed through the plugin’s Python launcher. Locked wheels are installed in the project-local environment.
  • FAYE_WORKSPACE_ROOT must identify the active project; first-time dependency setup needs the locked wheels.

Scope and limitations

  • Semantic object removal, generative fill, background invention, and other generative edits are outside this workflow.
  • Animated inputs, PDFs, and document markup are unsupported. Text and raster workloads are bounded by the editor's limits.
  • Existing source containers are preserved unless another supported destination is requested; JPEG flattens alpha. Existing outputs require explicit overwrite authorization.
