History of set_bitdepth_mode

== Syntax ==

: void set_bitdepth_mode(int mode)

== Arguments ==

:mode

:: Integer which can take only two values: 8 or 16

== Description ==

Setting mode to 16 will make the rgb2hsl and hsl2rgb functions treat the passed color values as 16bit color values.

Setting mode to 8 will activate the default behaviour of these functions.

== Comments ==

:16-bit mode means that values are in 0 to 32768 range. (Photoshop does not use the full range of 16-bit values.)
