Author: ImageMagick Studio LLC
Description: ImageMagick® is a software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (about 100) including GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, TIFF, and DPX. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves. ImageMagick is free software delivered as a ready-to-run binary distribution or as source code that you can freely use, copy, modify, and distribute. Its license is compatible with the GPL. It runs on all major operating systems. The functionality of ImageMagick is typically utilized from the command line or you can use the features from programs written in your favorite programming language.

## AcquireImageColormap

AcquireImageColormap() allocates an image colormap and initializes it to a linear gray colorspace. If the image already has a colormap, it is replaced. AcquireImageColormap() returns MagickTrue if successful, otherwise MagickFalse if there is not enough memory.

The format of the AcquireImageColormap method is:

      MagickBooleanType AcquireImageColormap(Image *image,
        const size_t colors)

A description of each parameter follows:

##### image

the image.

##### colors

the number of colors in the image colormap.

## CycleColormap

CycleColormap() displaces an image's colormap by a given number of positions. If you cycle the colormap a number of times you can produce a psychodelic effect.

The format of the CycleColormapImage method is:

      MagickBooleanType CycleColormapImage(Image *image,const ssize_t displace)

A description of each parameter follows:

##### image

the image.

##### displace

displace the colormap this amount.
