Right-click on the icon to open a dialog with the following configuration parameters. For each of these parameters, the list of available profiles is read from $DARKTABLE/share/darktable/color/out and $HOME/.config/darktable/color/out (where $DARKTABLE represents darktable’s installation directory and $HOME your home directory).
- display profile
- Set the color profile for the display. The option “system display profile” is the preferred setting when working with a calibrated display. The profile is taken either from your system’s color manager or from your X display server. The method darktable uses to detect your system display profile can be changed in preferences > miscellaneous. For more information see the display profile section.
- intent
- Set the rendering intent for your display – only available if rendering with LittleCMS2 is activated. See rendering intent for a list of available options. This option appears twice – once for the “display profile” and once for the “preview display profile”.
- softproof profile
- Set the color profile for soft proofing. Typically these profiles are supplied by your printer or generated during printer profiling.
- histogram profile
- Set the color profile of the histogram. None of the available options are ideal, however, “system display profile” is probably the least bad setting, since all other profiles are derived from the display color space and at least the values will conform to what you see on screen.
