I have been doing JPEG image captures of Canvas3D using the Solaris version of Java 1.2.1 and Java3D. Those images I have been viewing look fine when viewed with xv. Once I use another graphics application, Netscape, IE on a PC, and ImageMagick, the images appear darker than the image in the Java3D app. This also happens when I load the JPEG into an ImageIcon class and display it with a simple Java program. I also used other tools, ImageMagick and xwd, to do regular screen dumps on my Java3D app and the same thing occurs. The app and xv image look the same, everything else is darker. I also did the same this with some of the Java3D demos and get the same result. After playing the images, it seems like the gamma value used by xv and Java3D seem to be different than what other applications use. Does anyone have any insight on this and what could be done to make my screen captures look the same on all apps? My main concern is to get the image captured with my Java3D app to look the same when it is displayed using the ImageIcon class in a Java app. Is there any way to change the gamma value used by Java3D to do it's displays? Is there some OpenGL setting that can be made to get this to work?
