You have your choice of these special effects:
The expression consists of one or more channels, either mnemonic or numeric (e.g. red, 1), separated by certain operation symbols as follows:
<=> exchange two channels (e.g. red<=>blue) => copy one channel to another channel (e.g. red=>green) = assign a constant value to a channel (e.g. red=50%) , write new image with channels in the specified order (e.g. red, green) | replace the specified channel in the first image with the specified channel in the second image (e.g. red | green) ; separate each specified channel to its own image (e.g. red; green; blue)
For example, to create 3 grayscale images from the red, green, and blue channels of an image, use:
-channel-fx "red; green; blue"
A channel without an operation symbol implies separate (i.e, semicolon).
