[Bug 938751] Re: Images are washed out or colors are skewed in some apps (particularly Image Viewer and Chrome)

 

In Krita there could be seen(and set) various colour profiles ICC
standards for images(could be seen on Create New Image).

If some vague generated colour profile for unsupported monitors or
hardware vendors uninterested for such GNOME thing(may be different in
other DE?) is lack of corporate funding interest on this area, but at
least CMYK colour profile standard means that such image should looked
same on monitor as printed, but todays advanced monitors support
sometimes 10bit colours or 8+2computed and also not only advanced SRGB
~100% coverage of colours, but it is also towards 100% DCI-P3 coverage
of possible colours and such thing should colour profile support and if
"generated" don't, problem occurs(or shit images). Now is also OKLCH
colour standard instead of RGB in CSS web.

More on advancement on this area in articles:

and

Adobe software is maybe long standard in this area(maybe with web apps),
but industry is much wider...
