[Development] Color Management support in Qt 5?

2013-11-02 Thread John Layt
Hi, I'm wondering if anyone is working on color management support in Qt 5? I know there was some thought about it before 5.0 and vague suggestions about support in 5.1 or 5.2, but I suspect that was lost in the move from Nokia to Digia? Cheers! John. ___

Detecting a colour space and converting to device colour spaces is around the same amount of developer time as for special casing sRGB. Detecting sRGB among hundrets of ICC profiles is not trivial or fast, while such a detection does not matter in a generic colour managed environment. EXT_textu

Allow me jump into this topic to contribute to its liveliness :) The term "Color Management" has been used in different ways here on the list. Lately, it was about how to blend images in a non-linear color space. That is IMHO perhaps a small and not "that typical" part of what color management mea

We created our own platform agnostic image loading and management code outside of Qt due to lack proper support in QImage for non typical texel formats/bit depths. (We support 8bit/16bit/32bit int and 16bit/32bit floating point) It should also be mentioned that on top of the QImage[Reader] code
