# NAME
notcurses_channels - operations on notcurses channels
# SYNOPSIS
**#include <notcurses/notcurses.h>**
```c
#define NCCHANNEL_INITIALIZER(r, g, b) \
(((uint32_t)r << 16u) + ((uint32_t)g << 8u) + (b) + NC_BGDEFAULT_MASK)
#define NCCHANNELS_INITIALIZER(fr, fg, fb, br, bg, bb) \
((NCCHANNEL_INITIALIZER(fr, fg, fb) << 32ull) + \
(NCCHANNEL_INITIALIZER(br, bg, bb)))

# DESCRIPTION
**ncchannel_palindex** extracts the palette index from a channel. The channel
must be palette-indexed, or the return value is meaningless. Verify palette
indexing with **ncchannel_palindex_p**. A channel can be set to palette
indexed mode (and have the index set) with **ncchannel_set_palindex**. The
index must be less than **NCPALETTESIZE**.
**ncchannels_combine** creates a new channel pair using ***fchan*** as the
foreground channel and ***bchan*** as the background channel.
# RETURN VALUES
Functions returning `int` return -1 on failure, or 0 on success. Failure is
always due to invalid inputs. Functions returning `bool` are predicates, and
return the requested value. Functions returning `unsigned` forms return the
input, modified as requested.
**ncchannels_reverse** inverts the color components of the two channels,
while holding all other elements constant. It's the Notcurses approximation
to reverse video.
