Fritz_H Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hi all, I did some editing on a picture using the most recent Beta (1.9.0.734). As I opened the file with the release-Version (1.8.5.703) I noticed a big difference: I checked all settings: the are the same in both Versions of Photo. It seems that the White-Balance-Adjustment from 1.9b causes this strong green color cast in 1.8.5 The issue did not occur with other images with similar workflow (edited in 1.9b, viewed in 1.8.5) Any ideas?

Staff Gabe Posted September 25, 2020 Staff Share Posted September 25, 2020 Hi @Fritz_H, Can you attach the raw file in question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz_H Posted September 25, 2020 Author Share Posted September 25, 2020 @Gabe The source is just a JPEG and the file is not mine; I will ask the owner for approval. The Affinity-File is about 50MB big. Dropbox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claudio60 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 The picture is affected from the same green color cast both in 1.8.5.703 than in 1.9.0.734, at least in my notebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowday Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I see what you see in 1.8.5 in both retail and beta version on my machine - monitor profiled. Both beta and retail use the profile as I expected. Did you have other Photo betas installed over the years? If so it may be time to wipe all Photo beta settings.

Gnobelix Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Hello @Fritz_H, Check the color setting, "convert opened to working space". Enable this Option, the image should no longer have a green cast.

Fritz_H Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 @Gabe FYI: the update to .767 did not fix this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffH Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I've tested the file with 1.8.3.461 and 1.9.0.767 (with and without Open CL) and there was no difference between the screen colours so that does not seem to be the cause of the problem. If I select the "convert open files to working space" as suggested by Gnobelix then the green cast goes away on both versions (with and without Open CL). IIRC that option is not selected by default. So it seems Open CL is not the culprit after all, at least on my Radeon Graphics card. Maybe it's an issue related to the card/driver combo instead? Just out of curiosity I checked with some of my own afphoto files (derived from RW2 & jpg) on all the settings and had no changes in colours.

Fritz_H Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 @GeoffH Thanks for your reply. The "convert.." - option is set in both: the release and the beta-Version of Photo on my Computer. Please see my posting from Sunday: I opened the file one time with OpenCL enabled and again with OpenCL disabled. same computer, same Beta, same file, only one setting changed (OpenCL) and the shown result is different. Before I noticed this problem, I edited some other files with the Beta and none of them shows this issue - just this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
