5. Color Tools |   |
This tool is designed to intelligently weigh the pixel colors of the selection or active layer and reduce the number of colors while maintaining a semblance of the original image characteristics.
The Posterize Dialog can be called in the following order, from the image-menu: → →
or by double-cliking on the
icon in ToolBox, if Color Tools have been added to it.
This slider and the input boxes with arrow-heads allow you to set the number of levels (2-256) in each RGB channel that the tool will use to describe the active layer. The total number of colors is the combination of these levels. A level to 3 will give 23 = 8 colors.
The Preview checkbox makes all changes dynamically so that they can be viewed straight away.
