Comments

This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.

The HSV value is the Hue, Saturation, Value color space. Traditionally, hue ranges from 0 to 359. However, the hue component of the HSVREF is represented by an unsigned byte. Therefore, the range of 0 to 359 is remapped to a range of 0..255. For example,

Color Hue(0..359) Hue(0..255)
Red 0 0
Green 120 85
Blue 240 170

Saturation ranges from 0 to 255 where 0 means the highest amount of white and 255 means no white.

Value ranges from 0 to 255 where 0 means highest amount of black and 255 means no black.
