lefty777 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Hi there, Just wondering why I always get a beige/creme artboard and not a clear white artboard? I cannot find anywhere in the settings or preferences to change this and i am sure other people have probably had the same issue. Could someone please advise me how to correct this please? I am running a Windows 10 PC 64bit Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, lefty777. :) This is a monitor profile issue. To fix it, go to 'Control Panel > Colour Management' and set sRGB IEC61966-2.1 as the default profile associated with your display.

lefty777 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 Hi Alfred and Mark, My apologises i didn't see your messages before. Display:1. AOC V27t - AMD Radeon R9 200 series Colour profile is set to set sRGB IEC61966-2.1 If I use Illustrator the white is a true white, so i am baffled why this is happening in Affinity. Is there a fix for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a fix for this? If you click on Devices, do you have any user settings configured? Are you using the 1.6.x.x beta? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty777 Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hi Mark, I am using Version 1.5.3.69. Strangest thing is that everything seems okay now, not sure why that is. I double checked and did a screen save of a white area on the computer and put it in Affinity and it is white again. Thanks for your help. If it happens again i will let you know. Much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
