mark us Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Don't know, if it really is a bug or not. Not sure, because I first thought it has sth to do with monitor profiles. It only occurs with the attached external monitor. With notebook screen only everything okay. I noticed it when I placed a logo-eps of a customer. I wouldn't have listed it here if it hadn't been okay in Indesign!! I create an eps in Affinity Designer. Blank Background (white), black empty rectangle, into this rectangle I place a rectangle, filled with white. Store it as test01.eps. I started wondering, when in Affinity Designer, the workspace background was yellowish and the white rectangle the same. (That's not nice, but consistent, because both yellowish.) When I open it in Adobe Illustrator, everything okay (white background, white rectangle) Then I open Affinity Publisher, place the test01.eps. The workspace is okay, white. The inner (should be white) rectangle is shown yellowish. No matter, if it is linked or embedded, no matter if it's preview mode or not. Placing the same test01.eps in Adobe InDesign, everything is okay and white.Exported pdf out of Affinity Publisher, everything is okay and white. In Affinity Publisher, the workspace background is white, but the colour swatch is ..... yellowish!!!!!! Showing CMYK 0/0/0/0 See attached screenvideo and example files. ?????????????????????????????????????????? additional hint: If I open the file, before attaching the 2nd monitor, everything is working fine and white as it should be. white_is_yellow.mp4 test.pdf test01.afdesign test01.afpub test01.eps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I believe there's a known problem with all the Affinity applications when you have multiple monitors attached and they have different color profiles.

Chris_K Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 HI Mark us This is very much a monitor profile thing. If you change it to be sRGB then you will see the yellow go back to being white Thanks Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After assigning an sRGB Standard Profile, white is now nearly white. But with InDesign and Illustrater, the Calibration-Profile was no problem.

shinebox Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 This is happening to me too with the latest Publisher Beta (as of today's date). Didn't notice this on the previous beta version... but perhaps it was there and I didn't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
