Why is background yellowy cream instead of white?

Hi MarkHankin and Welcome to the Forums,

This is likely to be a colour profile issue.  If you check under Display properties of Windows whats the colour profile set as?  Setting to sRGB should resolve it.

Not the settings in Affinity. The settings in Windows. 

It does not matter that other applications are ok. They don't do color processing the same way that Affinity does, and might not be affected by an incorrect Windows Display setting.

Hi Mark,

If you click on the Devices tab it will show if a Monitor Profile is enabled, which i suspect it will be.  You should have an for Add on that Window and if you click on Add, select sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and then set that as Default, everything will appear fine within Affinity :)
