Title: color management under Virtualbox?
Post by: howardm4 on April 21, 2020, 08:04:26 PM
Hi,

I'm starting to use QU2020.211 on a Mac (Virtualbox & Win10).

I've created a custom display profile and it all looks good (computer set to use that display profile) BUT...........

When I open an image and drag it to the middle window, the saturation is much higher than normal
although if I dbl-click and bring up the image editor, the colors are properly muted.

So, my question is whether the middle window (the page window) is actually color managed itself or
not (like the Photoshop printing dialog window is not actually color managed)

(sorry, I just realized that this should be in the QU forum; would someone pls move it if possible)

Everything in QU is color managed, even the live view and thumbnails.  You could try clicking "View" from the top menu and "Rebuild thumbs/raw cache" to refresh color management settings for the thumbs and live view.

Mike
