/**
 * Off-screen paint device with extended features.

 * KPixmap has two new color modes, WebColor and LowColor, applicable
 * to 8bpp displays.

 * In WebColor mode all images are dithered to the Netscape palette,
 * even when they have their own color table. WebColor is the default
 * mode for KPixmap so that standard applications can share the Netscape
 * palette across the desktop.

 * In LowColor mode images are checked to see if their color table
 * matches the KDE icon palette. If the color tables do not match, the
 * images are dithered to a minimal 3x3x3 color cube. LowColor mode can
 * be used to load icons, background images etc. so that components of
 * the desktop which are always present use no more than 40 colors.

	 * white pixels then the pixmap becomes monochrome. If the pixmap has a
	 * depth of 8 bits per pixel and the image does not posess a color table
	 * that matches the Icon palette a 3x3x3 color cube is used for the
	 * pixmap color table.
	 * @li AutoColor (default) - If the image has depth 1 and contains
	 * only black and white pixels, then the pixmap becomes
	 * monochrome.
	 * @li ColorOnly - The pixmap is dithered/converted to the native
	 * display depth.
	 * @li MonoOnly - The pixmap becomes monochrome. If necessary, it
	 * is dithered using the chosen dithering algorithm.
	 *
	 * Dithering mode preference, for RGB channels
	 *
	 * @li DiffuseDither (default) - A high quality dither.
	 * @li OrderedDither - A faster more ordered dither.
	 * @li ThresholdDither - No dithering, closest color is used.
	 *
	 * Dithering mode preference, for alpha channel
	 *
	 * @li DiffuseAlphaDither - A high quality dither.
	 * @li OrderedAlphaDither - A faster more ordered dither.
	 * @li ThresholdAlphaDither (default) - No dithering.
	 *
	 * Color matching versus dithering preference
	 *
	 * @li PreferDither - Always dither 32-bit images when the image
	 * is being converted to 8-bits. This is the default when
	 * converting to a pixmap.
	 * @li AvoidDither - Only dither 32-bit images if the image has
	 * more than 256 colors and it is being converted to 8-bits.
	 * This is the default when an image is converted for the
	 * purpose of saving to a file.
