# ColorAdjustmentProvider.HistogramEqualize Method 
 
Applies histogram equalization to the bitmap. Histogram is taken from the bitmap automatically.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```
Public Sub HistogramEqualize
```
 
```csharp
public void HistogramEqualize()
```
 
## Remarks
 You can also use [HistogramEqualize](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_HistogramEqualize.htm.md) class to apply this correction.
  
## Supported Pixel Formats

| Member Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Format8bppGrayScale** | 8 bits per pixel. Grayscale. 8 bits are used for luminosity level. |
| **Format16bppGrayScale** | 16 bits per pixel. Grayscale. All 16 bits are used for luminosity level (extended pixel format). |
| **Format16bppAGrayScale** | 16 bits per pixel. Grayscale with alpha channel. 8 bits are used for alpha channel and other 8 bits are used for luminosity level. |
| **Format32bppAGrayScale** | 32 bits per pixel. Grayscale with alpha channel. 16 bits are used for alpha channel and other 16 bits are used for luminosity level (extended pixel format). |
| **Format24bppRgb** | 24 bits per pixel. RGB. 8 bits each are used for the red, green, and blue components. |
| **Format32bppRgb** | 32 bits per pixel. RGB. 8 bits each are used for the red, green, and blue components. The rest 8 bits are unused. |
| **Format32bppArgb** | 32 bits per pixel. RGB with alpha channel. 8 bits each are used for the alpha, red, green, and blue components. |
| **Format48bppRgb** | 48 bits per pixel. RGB. 16 bits each are used for the red, green, and blue components (extended pixel format). |
