SUMMARY
***
It would be nice if RGB range: Automatic would also display the currently
chosen value
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open systems Settings
2. Go to Display and Monitor
3. Look at RGB range value (I'm not sure if this is available for all GPU
vendors), it might be an Intel only thing.
OBSERVED RESULT
The RGB range value by default is Automatic.
But it's not clear which one of the two values (Full, Limited) has been
automatically choosen for the current GPU / computer
EXPECTED RESULT
To display if possible which option has been choosen automatically so we know
if the best value for our GPU / monitor is being used or we need to check the
cables, upgrade the Linux kernel, Mesa drivers, etc.
Something like:
Automatic (current: Full)
Or
Automatic (current: Limited)
Right now since it's not clear which one has been selected automatically I
always go there change it manually to Full just to be sure, but I would like to
avoid doing that if I see that the Automatic chooses the right thing for my
computer.
If this depends on the driver and the drivers doesn't report back what it has
chosen, then tthat's it, it's ok leaving as it is.
Maybe explain why this is not possible in that tooltip next to it and hopefully
one day the driver developers seeing it, will add that information too to their
drivers in a way that KDE can read it and display it.
