MagickPassFail ColorMatrixImage( Image *image, const unsigned int order,
                                 const double *color_matrix );

Description

ColorMatrixImage() applies a color matrix to the image channels. The user supplied matrix may be of order 1 to 5 (1x1 through 5x5) and is used to update the default identity matrix:

1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1

where the first four columns represent the ratio of the color (red, green, blue) and opacity components incorporated in the output summation. The first four rows represent the summations for red, green, blue, and opacity. The last row is a dummy row and is not used. The last column represents a constant value (expressed as a ratio of MaxRGB) to be added to the row summation. The following is a summary of how the matrix is applied:

r' = r*m[0,0] + g*m[1,0] + b*m[2,0] + o*m[3,0] + MaxRGB*m[4,0] g' = r*m[0,1] + g*m[1,1] + b*m[2,1] + o*m[3,1] + MaxRGB*m[4,1] b' = r*m[0,2] + g*m[1,2] + b*m[2,2] + o*m[3,2] + MaxRGB*m[4,2] o' = r*m[0,3] + g*m[1,3] + b*m[2,3] + o*m[3,3] + MaxRGB*m[4,3]

The format of the ColorMatrixImage method is:

MagickPassFail ColorMatrixImage( Image *image, const unsigned int order,
