[Monitor Colour Problem]

@BofG Thanks for the clarification. I'll just tell the monitor to use the default sRGB profile then. That definitely stops the "yellow" tinge in Affinty.

@BofG That seems interesting, but I'm afraid the technical details are right over my head. 🤣 

From what you've said my understanding is that ViewSonic have not released an updated ICC profile for my monitor. Is there any way I could get around this, by using a different profile, say?

And about the colour reproduction, that's great to hear! How were you able to determine this?

Hi BofG,

See colour profile attached.

@NotMyFault Thank you - this has solved my problem. By manually forcing the Windows default sRGB profile, whites look correct. I have tried to get in contact with ViewSonic about this but they are extremely unhelpful. They won't do anything in the way of answering questions, they want me to pay to send the monitor in for servicing when clearly the monitor itself works.

Thanks again for your help, and thanks too to @BofG for your input.

Hi,

I own a ViewSonic VA-2719-2K-SMHD monitor. The drivers from ViewSonic are installed and Windows 10 is set to use the ViewSonic 6500K ICC profile for the monitor. The monitor has been physically set to its sRGB preset (it is advertised as being pre-calibrated for sRGB).

Within Affinity, the colour profiles are set to the default sRGB entries.

My problem is that any white (255,255,255) areas in my document come out as a pale shade of yellow, whilst white parts of the UI and the "page" itself are exactly white as they should be.

Any suggestions?

 

Regards,

Dominic
