Hunky Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) I am having a veeery strange issue. When I try to export my graphics assets (PNG), the white color turns darker and closer to a gray color than pure white. Has anyone experienced this before? It is pretty clear to see if you compare (or color pick) the result in the export preview with the original to the right [9:36 PM] Edited April 13, 2021 by Hunky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. Both the original and the export preview appear grayish to me, though the preview is grayer than the original. What color space does your document use? What color profile?

Happy to be here, and happy to discover it is as active as it is. Here are my Document Setup settings. Do they affect how Affinity exports images?

walt.farrell Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Those should be OK. Can you share your original .afphoto or .afdesign file?

Hunky Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 For the record, I'm aware there's a gradient overlay effect applied, however, I wouldn't expect it to darken the exported result as much as it does. The difference between the asset on the artboard and the asset that is exported is unreasonably large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
