+ * @GDK_VISUAL_GRAYSCALE: Each pixel is an index into a color map that
+ * maps pixel values into grayscale values. The color map can be
+ * changed by an application.
+ * @GDK_VISUAL_STATIC_COLOR: Each pixel value is an index into a predefined,
+ * unmodifiable color map that maps pixel values into RGB values.
+ * @GDK_VISUAL_PSEUDO_COLOR: Each pixel is an index into a color map that
+ * maps pixel values into rgb values. The color map can be changed by
+ * an application.
+ * @GDK_VISUAL_TRUE_COLOR: Each pixel value directly contains red, green,
+ * and blue components. Use gdk_visual_get_red_pixel_details(), etc,
+ * to obtain information about how the components are assembled into
+ * a pixel value.
+ * @GDK_VISUAL_DIRECT_COLOR: Each pixel value contains red, green, and blue
+ * components as for %GDK_VISUAL_TRUE_COLOR, but the components are
+ * mapped via a color table into the final output table instead of
+ * being converted directly.
+ *
+ * A set of values that describe the manner in which the pixel values
+ * for a visual are converted into RGB values for display.
