Re: [Gimp-developer] RC3 strange logic of monitor profile use if Windows hasn't profile assigned and checkbox is checked

Therefore, the GIMP can't understand that the profile have not been specified. Nice to hear. But this is just the behavior I described. Despite the fact it works as designed the logic is wrong - the sRGB Color Space Profile.icm does not differ from sRGB GIMP uses by default and is not the particular monitor profile. So this profile should be handled as a profile, absent from system. -- With respect Alexander Rabtchevich ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

If you want to check which monitor profile is used, you can do that in the lcms display filter dialog.
