Colour changes to entire display?

[viridian23]

Hi all,

I've recently installed Affinity Designer, Publisher and Photo and I've been using Designer and Publisher with no problems. However, I recently opened Photo for the first time today and it seems to have changed the colours on my MacBook. The changes are not isolated to images in Photo they are effecting everything on my screen no matter the application. The colours are being overexposed and it is extremely noticeable on images of people because of the skin tones.

I've tired removing the application and I've tried to change the colour profile on my MacBook but this has not resolved the issue. I've also used and external display and this was working fine. I'm currently using a M1 MacBook Pro running Ventura.

Please can anyone help me with this?

Thanks in advance

What's your MBP internal screen setup color profile in macOS now? - By default it should be something like Color LCD, or on newer Mx SoC based MBPs then Display P3 !

Hi @viridian23and Welcome to the Forums,

Further to what @v_kyrhas advised, what type of image did you open?  Is it a RAW file or a JPG?  If RAW a file, can you replicate the problem with a JPG?  Can you also post a screenshot of your Affinity Photo 2>Settings>Colour window from Affinity
