SDL_SetGamma(3) 	       SDL API Reference	       SDL_SetGamma(3)

NAME

SDL_SetGamma - Sets the color gamma function for the display

SYNOPSIS

#include "SDL.h" int SDL_SetGamma(float redgamma, float greengamma, float bluegamma);

DESCRIPTION

Sets the "gamma function" for the display of each color component. Gamma controls the brightness/contrast of colors displayed on the screen. A gamma value of 1.0 is identity (i.e., no adjustment is made). This function adjusts the gamma based on the "gamma function" parame- ter, you can directly specify lookup tables for gamma adjustment with SDL_SetGammaRamp. Not all display hardware is able to change gamma.

RETURN VALUE

Returns -1 on error (or if gamma adjustment is not supported).
