assuming you have a current version of IM at least 6.5.3-4, then you can replace the composite -dissolve with convert -compose dissolve ... -composite and then chain all the converts as follows: convert background.png \ \( layer-1.png -transparent white \) \ -compose dissolve -set option:compose:args 50,100 -composite \ \( layer-2.png -transparent white \) \ -compose dissolve -set option:compose:args 50,100 -composite \ \( layer-3.png -transparent white \) \ -compose dissolve -set option:compose:args 50,100 -composite \ \( top.png -transparent white \) \ -compose over -layers merge out.png
