I'm not sure that Posterize would give the desired result in this case,
since it will still throw values that are not possible to represent as a
half precision float.
You'd probably want to re-create a 16 bit half-float value by breaking the
32 bit float into its exponent and mantissa(significant) values, and then
truncating those.
The following expression might work (not thoroughly tested, though)
set cut_paste_input [stack 0]
version 7.0 v4
push $cut_paste_input
add_layer {alpha alpha.red alpha.beta}
Expression {
expr0 "exponent(r) > 16 ? r*inf: ldexp(rint(mantissa(r)* (2**11))/(2**11),
exponent(r))"
expr1 "exponent(g) > 16 ? g*inf: ldexp(rint(mantissa(g)* (2**11))/(2**11),
exponent(g))"
expr2 "exponent(b) > 16 ? b*inf: ldexp(rint(mantissa(b)* (2**11))/(2**11),
exponent(b))"
channel3 alpha
name Float_To_Half
selected true
xpos 292
ypos 226
}
Hope that helps.
PS. Mark, hope you're doing well! :)
