PWP 6.0.10: Color Management not saving all settings to file

Post by mjdl »

I don't change the color management settings once I've set them to the lcms CMS system, my current monitor profile and the working color space, display intent and conversion options, but I've just noticed something: when saving a color management options file, the convert-on-open option is not saved, and "Don't Convert" becomes the default. I usually set it to "Ask only on mismatch", since this avoids unintended conversions--most of my untagged JPEG/TIFF images are assumed to be in the sRGB color space by default, but I want to be alerted when I load an image which is explicitly tagged in another color space.

Is this intentional? if so, what are the reasons? (Or is it simply an oversight?)

The setting was being saved and restored correctly, but the wrong value was being displayed. This will be fixed in the next release.

Thank you for the answer. I'm assuming "next release" means PWP 7.0 (I must admit I've scarcely tried the 7.0 betas).
