I'm right with you on this one. Jumping sliders aren't helping anyone.I've
noticed this behavior with the Gretag iOne software as well. I also notice
this but to a lesser extent when I use the iOne instrument with ICC
Display. When I use a colorimeter (X-Rite DTP-92) with ICC Display the
jumping sliders goes away completely. This leads me to believe that the
slider jumpiness is maybe a spectrophotometer thing.

So I just wanted to mention a thumbs up for ICC Display.
I like this software as well...it seems to build pretty nice profiles with
the iOne instrument.

Still an imperfect science I guess.
I agree...it's pretty amazing how different all the various solutions are.
Part of it I'm willing to bet is instrumentation (spectros vs.
colorimetes).
