Hey Richard,
I need some urgent help with the release-notes. I want to finish the
release-notes within 2 days, but I know nothing about the colour
management. Could you assist to explain and give a screenshot?
I read https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointOne/Features/ColorManagement
but not sure what bits are in GNOME 3.2.
This is what currently is written:
| <title>Colour management</title>
| <para>
| Due to differences in the way colours are shown, the same picture can look
| different between monitors. Similarly, when the picture is printed its
| colours might have changed again.
| </para>
| <para>
| GNOME &gnomeversion; allows to calibrate devices to ensure the shown
| colours are representative.
| XXX / TODO: https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointOne/Features/ColorManagement
| </para>
Wiki has the following:
| * Watch for profile changes (listen to colord signals) and apply new or changed profiles to the display
| * Watch for color calibration devices and start a color-management tool if one appears
|
| There is a control-center panel that allows to associate color
| profiles with devices such as monitors, printers or scanners, and
| also lets you calibrate these devices if the necessary
| hardware/software for that are available. The focus of the panel will
| be more on letting a casual user fix occasional color issues than on
| all-out color management. The latter will be better served by
| explicit color management support in applications that need it, as
| well as a dedicated color-management tool.
I only noticed colour calibration in 3.2. How could I set an existing
profile for e.g. my monitor?
Could you also give me a nice screenshot? Something which is shiny and
makes it clear for the user. Please avoid having the mouse cursor on the
screenshot!
