Affinity Photo doesn’t take advantage of P3 gamut on iPad Pro


Recommended Posts

Affinity Photo on iPad seems to colour-manage correctly but only displays results clipped to the sRGB gamut, not taking advantage of the wider P3 gamut on the iPad Pro display. The result is that wide gamut images do not appear correctly, and colours outside the sRGB gamut are not visible.

 

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Use an iPad Pro model with P3 display.
  2. Create a new document with Display P3 as the colour profile.
  3. Paint some pure red (255, 0, 0) onto the canvas.
  4. Take a screenshot (sleep button + volume up). The screenshot will be in P3.
  5. Import the screenshot into Affinity Photo. The imported document will be in P3.
  6. Sample the red with the eye dropper. Instead of P3 (255, 0, 0), the colour will be P3 (233, 51, 35), which is sRGB (255, 0, 0).

Hi @mandykoh :)

Unfortunately we don't yet support the P3 Gamut on the iPad devices - this has been raised with our developers previously and we hope to add support for this in the future.

I hope this clears things up!

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!
