adus Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 My problem affects all 3 Affinity programs: Publisher, Photo and Designer... The preview of the selected color does not match the entered values in the view at all. For example (see images) white is displayed in a bright yellow. In Publisher at least the object is displayed in the correct color; in AP and AD also the objects are in the (wrong) color as in the panel. Also on the settingspanel are the icons in different 'whites' (picture 2) However, the colors are printed correctly. I have already installed another graphics card and also tested it on another monitor - the result is the same. I hope that my problem can be seen on the attached pictures. First picture is a screenshot of AP, 2. the settingspanel, the third one are the colorsettings. PS. In other programs (e.g. text program) the color palette is displayed correctly. Does anyone have an idea? Many thanks in advance for them. Greetings from Germany Hans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only the swatch in the Colour panel that looks yellow. Regardless, I’m interested to note that it seems to be the same issue.

adus Posted January 25, 2022 Author Share Posted January 25, 2022 @Alfred, it was a little different in Publisher vs. Photo and Designer. In Publisher was only the panel 'yellow', in Designer and Photo was the object also wrong coloured... The given Link from @Dan C was the solution in my case.

This points to the fact that the ICC profile for the monitor is used in Affinity applications to render various elements. That's pretty weird.
