Color-Component Values

Each color component in a color space (other than an indexed color space) is described by a numeric color-component value, defined by the gxColorValue type definition:

typedef unsigned short gxColorValue;

Color-component values can vary from 0 (no intensity) to 0xFFFF (maximum intensity). You can use the constant gxColorValue1 to represent 0xFFFF.
