Apple ColorSync Display - Manual (Page 37)

m The ColorSync profile included with your monitor works with other device
profiles to ensure the closest match possible between monitor color and
printed color. See Appendix A, “Using ColorSync Software” for more
information. To refine the color profile, you can use the Color window in
the Monitors & Sound control panel to further adjust for your specific
monitor and lighting conditions.
m To correct for ambient light conditions, the color depth on your monitor
must be set to “Millions of Colors.” If you can’t set color depth to “Millions
of Colors,” try changing to a lower screen resolution. Use the Color button
to open color depth and resolution settings.
Note: References to AppleVision also apply to your ColorSync Display.
Using the Control Strip
When you turn on your monitor, a small pull tab appears in the lower-left
corner of the screen. Click once on the pull tab to open it. This is called the
Control Strip.
The Control Strip is a quick and easy way to make changes to the features you
use most on your computer, such as screen resolution and color depth.
The Control Strip may look slightly different depending on the options on
your computer. Move the pointer over the item you want to use and hold
down the mouse button. A pop-up menu appears with a selection of choices.
Hold down the Option key and drag the Control Strip up or down the left or
right side of the desktop. Release the Option key and mouse button when the
Control Strip is located where you want it.
