When I check the alias of the colorsync>profiles>display folder> LCD (1)
profile and eblue (2) profile [I have a 19"crt running off a mac g4
powerbook] then both point to the photocal profile I created. This seems
correct. But if I choose to try to reassociate the alias's with another
profile, it gets overwritten. What determines where these display folder
alias's point to?
I'm not familiar with dual monitor setups, but on my old PB190c I
used to use monitor mirroring to display laptop on a monitor, I then
had to choose that particular monitor profile in my Monitor Control
Panel - which is the app which writes the alias to the Display
Folder. Have you considered reversing the order? My former partner on
the other side of the country just got his G4 and says his setup is
primary for his monitor and the G4 display just falls into place
using it's own default display profile. Is this so?
Also, in the monitors control panel, what controls the list of profiles in
the popup window? Are they in a colorsync pref or cache, or in a monitor
pref?
They are the monitor and rgb color profiles in the System
Folder>Colorsync Profiles Folder. Not to be confused with the legacy
System Folder>Preferences Folder>ColorSync Profiles Folder.
