Transparency and Shading Color 1 & 2 issue

Post by jdXp »

Wondering if anyone has encountered this issue.

Using PSP 2019 Ultimate.

In File > preferences > General Program Preferences . Transparency and Shading

the RGB Decimals show as

255 255 255 = white but is showing up as a pale or lemon yellow color.

192 192 192 = silver but is showing up as fawn/brown color.

I run Windows 10 with dual Monitors (Samsung SyncMaster 2494HM).

I do not believe it is a monitor issue because e.g. the white on this board is showing white.

Opening the attachment with Paint shows white except where Color 1 & 2 are.

Thanks

Thanks for the heads up and the link to a previous discussion that reading through did not seem to resolve the issue of yellow or blue instead of white.

It was relatively simple once I had figured it out.

File > Color Management > Color Management change Monitor Profile to sRGB Color Space Profile.icm

NB someone has told me this can also be "none" which often shows when PSP does not recognize the monitor manufacturer or it is a generic monitor.

I will go to the link and add this.

Thanks again.
