cv2.resize changes color mode of my image

Question

I want to resize an image but it turns blue when I use the method.

---

My venv has:
Python 3.9
opencv-python==4.5.5.64

I'm working on a .ipynb file through Pycharm.

Have this cell after imports:

sns.set_theme(style='whitegrid',
              rc={'figure.figsize': (20, 10),
                  'axes.grid' : False})

Here is my code:

In 1

img = cv2.imread('../sample_img/secret/sample_img_secret.jpeg')
img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
plt.imshow(img);

Out 1

In 2

img = cv2.imread('../sample_img/secret/sample_img_secret.jpeg')
img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
img = cv2.resize(img, (100, 100), interpolation=cv2.INTER_AREA)
plt.imshow(img);

Out 2

I can't figure what's happening even diving in the docs and SO. This used to work on an earlier notebook.

Thx in advance!!

Answer 1

Finally found the answer when opening the notebook from VSCode. It's just a PyCharm setting which was creating the mess.

In case you are in the same situation just disable:

Preferences | Languages & Frameworks | Jupyter | Invert image outputs for dark themes
