Posterize Levels

Here, „level“ means „number of colors per channel “.

This slider and the input boxes with arrowheads allow you to set the number of levels (2-256) in each RGB channel that the tool uses to describe the active layer. The maximum total number of colors is the combination of these levels. A level to 3 will give 3³ = 27 colors.
