Tried that and also tried to call recache - doesn't help at all.
Another part of the story - if image was created in my application it
actually works fine on all monitors untill I save it and open again. It all
depends on how NSImage was initialized - if I create it internally in one
very particular way through NSBitmapImgeRep, save to TIFF and assign to
NSImageView it works fine on all monitors. If I load that TIFF and try to
assign to the same view - broken. The tiff file is fine and in fact I tried
to save it from views when it shows right colors and wrong colors, all files
are binary identical and displayed properly in Photoshop and Aperture.

GIven that it affects OS X-bundled apps (Preview of all things) and behaves in a very unexpected way, I think it's safe to call this one a bug.

Looks like that :)

I'd file it with radarweb.

Waste of time and no gratification for me at all - I'm pretty sure they are aware of it and even if sky will fall and they fix it for 10.5.6 I still need to support all possible 10.4.x and 10.5.x versions since I'm not in Updates Enforcement Business for Apple. Whatever fix I put in is going to stay in my application pretty much forever anyway.
They struggle in this area for years and it was always broken in one or another way. Before it was enough to restart an application after connecting second monitor to resolve color issues though.


Some workaround posted here would have a lot more value for developers and our users IMHO.

If you have it, you may also want to
burn an incident with DTS to see if they have a reliable work-around.

Don't have it.
