Thanks for the updates. It's great to see the progress here. Meanwhile I found an option in the AMD Software that magically reduces the display colours to sRGB and I could calibrate them to be more exact (mostly shifted the white point which was still too warm). That option isn't nearly labelled as what it does and it seems to be undocumented. Yet it's there and solves my problem in the first place.

Hello, My new Lenovo laptop with a wide-gamut "100% DCI-P3" display is kind of annoying to use with Windows 11. Nothing except a handful of special applications seem to be aware of colour profiles. Why are such displays even manufactured if they're incompatible with 98% of all software, including the Windows desktop itself? To try and improve things bit by bit, I'd like to ask for the status of colour profiles in paint.net. I know that I can one-way apply an embedded profile to the image pixels. This cannot be undone when saving the image, and it certainly won't help if no profile was embedded in the first place. Even if we assume sRGB then, the colours still look wild on screen. I might need to fully replace paint.net with Affinity Photo even for the simplest tasks where I liked to use it before. So, are there any plans to add colour management to paint.net? A first step would be to apply the selected display profile only for displaying, but keep the original pixels when saving. Next would be saving images with a specific profile and convert pixels between profiles. Of course, any embedded profile would always need to be considered from the start. "Applying" it has no real use in this colour-managed world. But I see that profile calculations already seem to be there.
