I have a programmer friend who took an interest in ColorSync after one of
the sessions at the Developer's Conference (WWDC).
Apparently all applications, including the Finder, render to the screen via
ColorSync... which is interesting, but it also assumes that you have a
profile which adequately describes your monitor's behaviour.
Seeing as none of the major vendors are shipping an OSX native solution for
monitor calibration and profiling, it would reason that the best method to
do this would be to run the calibration/profiling software in Classic and
copy the profile over to OSX. But that assumes that OS X and Classic behave
in the same manner when dealing with the video card, etc. I don't know if
that is indeed the case.
Has anyone on the list has tinkered with OSX's implementation of ColorSync?
At the moment, this is pure geek-ery, but it might become a more practical
subject in the near future as OS X becomes more commonplace.
thanks in advance for any advice...
