drawing a line on an image with PIL

python, python-imaging-library

Solution

This should work:

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw
im = Image.new('RGBA', (400, 400), (0, 255, 0, 255)) 
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im) 
draw.line((100,200, 150,300), fill=128)
im.show()

Basically using `ImageDraw` draw over the image, then display that image after changes, to draw a thick line pass width

draw.line((100,200, 150, 300), fill=128, width=3)

Problem

I want to draw a line and show it. assume I have a PIL image. ``` draw = ImageDraw.Draw(pilImage) draw.line((100,200, 150,300), fill=128) ``` How can I show the image? Before drawing the line I could do: ``` imshow(pilImage) ``` but `imshow(draw)` does not show the image. How do I convert this back to a PIL image?
