Comments

This function simulates what would happen if the image had just been painted with paints and the paints were allowed to dry. The colors become darker, with less brightness.

The effect can be controlled by specifying the size of the neighborhood that is used for calculating each pixel value.

If the bitmap has a region, the effect will be applied on the region only.

This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.
