Otherwise, it creates +a color image (PAM tuple type RGB). + +.UN options +.SH OPTIONS +.PP +In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm +(most notably \fB-quiet\fP, see +.UR index.html#commonoptions + Common Options +.UE +\&), \fBpamgradient\fP recognizes the following +command line option: + + +.TP +\fB-maxval=\fP\fImaxval\fP + + +maxval of the generated image.

The color of the top right corner is a bit +shifted to the left, the bottom left corner a bit up, and the +bottom right corner left and up. This ensures nice transitions +when combining adjacent (very narrow) gradients, and doesn't play +a role when the gradient butts against a solid surface. +.PP +This effect is created by the integer arithmetic used for the +interpolation of the color values, and since it doesn't make a +difference for all practical purposes I might as well sell it as a +feature. + +.UN history +.SH HISTORY +.PP +\fBpamgradient\fP was new in Netpbm 10.31 (December 2005). + +.UN author +.SH AUTHOR +.PP +pamgradient was written by Daniel Haude in October 2005. +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
