Deleting a white point setting

To remove a custom setting, follow these steps:

1

Open the Monitors & Sound control panel, then click the Color button.

2

Open the White Point pop-up menu and choose the setting you want to delete.

3

Open the White Point pop-up menu again and choose Delete. (The Delete menu item will

include the name of the setting you are removing.)

The setting is immediately deleted. You cannot recover a setting you’ve
deleted.

Changing the gamma curve

You can adjust the gamma curve to match images you acquire or images you
are exporting. For example, most scanners use a gamma value of 1.0,
Mac OS–based computers use a gamma of 1.8, Windows-based computers use
a gamma of 1.3, and video-editing equipment (such as HDTV) uses a value of
2.2. Using the correct gamma value for the image you’re working with helps
ensure color accuracy.
