Dithering Methods (original) (raw)
The following are constants for the dithering methods:
| Constant | Meaning |
|---|---|
| None | Use nearest color matching. |
| FloydStein | Use the Floyd-Steinburg dithering method. Approximate the original color depth by diffusing errors to the four neighboring pixels. |
| Stucki | Use the Stucki dithering method. This is a variation of the Jarvis method. |
| Burkes | Use the Burkes dithering method. This is a variation of the Stucki method removing a line of pixels that errors are diffused to. |
| Sierra | Use the Sierra dithering method. This is a faster variation of the Jarvis method propagating errors to fewer neighboring pixels. |
| StevensonArce | Use the Stevenson Arce dithering method. This is method is slow but more likely to produce higher quality images. |
| Jarvis | Use the Jarvis dithering method. Approximate the original color depth by diffusing errors to twelve neighboring pixels. It is slower than the Floyd-Steinburg method. |
| Ordered | Use ordered dithering, which is faster but less accurate than other dithering methods. |
| Clustered | Use clustered dithering. |
