I'm pleased to announce that Argyll Version 0.60 has now been released.
Apart from numerous bug fixes and many minor feature additions and
improvements, the main changes to this version compared to the
previous one are:
* Support for the USB based X-Rite DTP94 (AKA Optix), which
is currently available, and is a relatively economical and
accurate display colorimeter that works on CRT and LCD displays.
* Comprehensive display control adjustment and calibration support,
including an "update" mode to keep a display in calibration, and
"report" and "verify" functions to measure a displays current
behaviour.
* Full multi-monitor support for display adjustment, calibration
and profiling on all supported operating systems (MSWindows,
OS X and Linux/X11).<
* The "dispwin" utility can now act as a video LUT calibration
loader on all operating systems, including multi-monitor systems.
Perceptual and Saturation intent gamut mapping has been greatly
refined, with much better black point and neutral axis handling,
smoother mappings with better saturation.
Note that there are some changes to how intents in icclink and profile
are specified, as well as viewing conditions in the utilities that use
them. Numerical identifiers for intents and viewing conditions have
been replaced by alphabetic mnemonics, so that the identifiers no longer
change every time a new release adds more options, or they are re-ordered
or deleted. You may have to change any existing scripts to accommodate the
new usage. See the html documentation for each utility for the details of
current usage.
As usual, a more detailed description of all changes is in the log.txt file
that accompanies the source code.
