How to Save Tiles to a Different Directory

By default, you specify the output directory when you run the imslice command. This guide shows you how to direct the output to any directory you choose.

The output_dir Argument

The imslice command requires two positional arguments:

1. source_path: The image you want to slice.
2. output_dir: The directory where the tiles will be saved.

Example

Let's say you have an image at /path/to/my/image.jpg and you want to save the tiles to a new directory called my-sliced-images on your Desktop.

Here's the command you would use:

# The output directory doesn't need to exist yet.
imslice /path/to/my/image.jpg ~/Desktop/my-sliced-images --grid 2 2

After the command finishes, the ~/Desktop/my-sliced-images directory will be created, and it will contain the four sliced tiles.
