This is an uncommon usecase that would require too much effort to support properly for the small amount of benefit. X11 has an atom which stores one ICC display profile per screen. We would have to change the display transform depending on which screen each pixel shows up on. This would also mean that we'd have to deal with the case where an image tile is split across two screens. Again, this would be a lot of code (and, thus, the potential for a lot of bugs). It would be infrequently used (and so the bugs would tend to not be found as quickly). And it would likely slow down our common code paths for little benefit. --xsdg _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
