Hi Danny.
Thank you for your reply, but...I'm still a bit confused. :-)
My original question regarded the use of PatchTool's "Display Check" with a
custom RGB or Lab list (in CGATS format).
More specifically, when using an RGB list, is it appropriate to use the
active monitor profile as both source and destination in the Display Check
UI?
And, when using a Lab list in Display Check, is it appropriate to use Lab as
source and the monitor profile as destination?
I'm not clear what to conclude from your explanation regarding these two
specific topics.
Thank you.
