Syntax short IsGrayscale

Overview:  Refer to Examining and Altering Bitmaps.

Remarks

Is an indicator of the kind of grayscale palette, if any, that a bitmap has.

Grayscale images can be 1, 4, 8, 12, or 16-bit. With a 1-bit image, you can use this property to check for inversion (for example, white lines on a black background) caused by an inverted palette.

Support for 12 and 16 bit grayscale images is only available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.
