Title: it saves in different shades
Post by: Katekbc on 2025-05-20, 14:57:47

Please help. When saving a visualization: it saves in different shades than it looks in the finished rendered frame window. I had this problem before- I think- in the previous version of Corona, but changing Color Management to Gamma Workflow, 2.2 - helped. And now the problem is back.

Hi,

Most probably this is output conversion issue.
One way to solve it, is to make sure Gamma workflow is used, and when outputting, no custom gamma is used.

With OCIO, make sure you have Output conversion set the same settings as for Frame buffer - for low dynamic range formats (JPG, PNG) this will give expected results.
Display/View transform is always ignored for high dynamic range formats (e.g. EXR).

Hope this helps.
