Showing the Swatch Color Without the Color Profile Applied

The swatch view – the rectangular color box inside a swatch – can be split to show:

  • the color as it will appear with its color profile used, and
  • the color as it appears on your monitor without the color profile being used.

You will find this useful when working with color in applications that do not use color profiles to display colors, graphics and images. For example, Fireworks does not use color profiles to display images and graphics since most web browsers don’t support color profiles. Displaying both views simultaneously provides you with a better visual indication of how a color will appear if an application ignores its color profile.

In Tangerine’s split view, the color as it appears on your monitor – without the color profile being used – is displayed in the top left corner of the swatch. See the diagram below.

This option can be enabled or disabled in the General Settings window. For more information see General Settings – An Overview.
