Ask on Mismatch profile conversion for multiple open file

Post by tomczak »

I'm trying to figure out if this is the way it should work:

If the Colour Mgmt settings are: Ask on Mismatch, Batch/Multiple = convert, and a Workspace with more than top-most image is opened, PWP pops up a Confirm Profile Conversion dialog for each new image. I kind of expected that with Multiple being set to 'convert' and choosing 'convert' for the first image in the Workspace, would then convert them all without asking, but maybe that's the way it should work (it may also have to do with the images being opened having no profile?).

The Batch/Multiple settings only applies to the File/Open Multiple command or when a batch process is running.

Considering that the profiles for each file could be different, I think it makes sense for Ask to confirm on each File Open, even if a workspace file opens more than one.

Personally, I used to always have it set to Ask, but virtually every time time I would just convert to the working color space, so I finally just set it to Convert.
