Marking this as WISHGROUP: Small Usability Fixes *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 407498 *** A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/graphics/krita/-/merge_requests/1768 Git commit 054517cd8f42e0f4215f7eae2628428bc23b3370 by Agata Cacko. Committed on 15/05/2023 at 14:09. Pushed by tymond into branch 'master'. Fix color profiles being assigned to screens by indexes Before this commit, Krita assigned color profiles to screens based on screen indexes, which apparently can change (see the bug report). This commit introduces "screen string identifier" which is a concatenation of multiple screen properties like manufacturer, serial number, resolution etc. (Note that especially on Windows, any of those properties might be empty strings).

Created attachment 123015 [details] ^ screenshot of the pannel; Screen 1, Screen 2, Screen 3 Hi, On a multi monitor setup, it's super difficult to identify the monitors in Settings → Configure Krita → Color management → Display. I have three monitors connected (one being the Cintiq13HD) and they all list this way: Screen 1 [ profile.icc ] Screen 2 [ profile.icc ] Screen 3 [ profile.icc ] My wish: ======== Getting an extra hint under "Screen" to identify the monitors on this interface. (eg. can be the geometry@position: eg. 1920x1080@0,0 and 1440x900@1920,0, or device name). Thank you! My workaround: ============== Opening a picture I know very well for the colors, taking a *.icc in the list with a dramatic different aspect (eg. ClayRGB) and apply it to a single entry (eg. Screen 2). Move the Krita windows on all monitor and note on paper the monitor target. On my setup: Screen 1 = my main. Screen 2 = Cintiq . Screen 3 = my second monitor. On xRandr listing appearance: 1 = my second monitor, 2 = My main monitor, 3 = Cintiq. So, this workaround is necessary.
