soft proofing (like in the "camera to print" video)

Hi
I've seen there're change softproofing buttons to flip very fast between softproofing and not softproofing.
Are they acting on the complete screen or only on the active window? (now testing on a laptop where the screen is the bottleneck)
I refer to a technique from the Lula "camera to print" video tutorial where the same image is changed with softproofing on while there's a not softproofed version on screen for reference.
If the complete screen changes, this could off course be simulated with the two images on screen and flipping the screen depending where you want to look.

Soft proof affects the images in the work area of PWP, all, if active or not.
It does not affect anything outside that area.
So i think your method is not useable in PWP.

Thanks
Well I can, but it involves switching repeatedly proofing on/off

Hi
Just a note that the original "camera to print" has successor and a specific part on color management. It's biased to adobe products, but I recommended it to all users that wat to use color management and softproofing.

Should pwp 6.x support the possibility to use the software technique demostrated that would be nice. (aka I refer to a technique from the Lula "camera to print" video tutorial where the same image is changed with softproofing on while there's a not softproofed version on screen for reference.)

You should display the non proofed version with another program (color management aware).
I think you cannot execute two instances of PWP at the same time. Do you have photoshop or Lightroom,...?

Nice suggestion, but I will try with a free icc aware image viewer. Buying photoshop is expensive!

Hi
Digital Dog has made two video's about the soft proofing with LR 4 - beta. Some nice idea's to use in pwp. Especially looking at a normal and soft proofed version at the same time while editing the soft proofed version and the background (not 100% white), probably like the paper.
