Posterize Levels

Here, 「level」 means 「number of colors per channel 」.

This slider and the + and - buttons 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 of 3 will give 3³ = 27 colors.
