I agree with Graeme. I will have to check if what you are saying is true. I don't actually believe that I tried that because what you described as the result of an action that is titled 'Assign Color Profile' doesn't make any sense. That's pretty much lying to the user and assuming the difference is irrelevant. Not to mention, if that function was properly titled I wouldn't have started this conversation. I understand that color management is complicated and probably not worth completely implementing until Gimp fully employs GEGL, but I think changing the menu so that File > Image > Mode > Assign Color Profile > sRGB ACTUALLY applies the selected sRGB color profile to the image and something like File > Image > Mode > Remove Color Profile would discard any color profile associated with the image would be a simple change that would be a huge improvement to Gimp's user interface. Thanks for pointing this behavior out. -Jason Simanek _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
