Description Manga Tengu 2021-03-19 11:34:57 UTC

SUMMARY
When importing a jpg file from the web in krita, The image will be showed grayer than on the other applications. This is because the image is loaded with the wrong color model whatever the color model options, sRGB will be chosen because the monitor's profile is not found.
The workaround is to save the resulting image without incorporating the icc.
I have attached a screenshot to the issue.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. import a jpg in krita
2. open the jpg in the system's viewer


OBSERVED RESULT
The image becomes grayer

EXPECTED RESULT
the image to look the same as everywhere in the OS

macOS: 11.2.3 (20D91)
15" 2018 MacBook pro

So, that's not exactly what's happening.

What is happening is that unassigned images that come in via copy-paste ask whether to use the monitor profile or sRGB, while images coming in via open file (like drag-and-drop), don't ask for monitor profile or srgb.

Futhermore, the monitor profile is not accesible from the assign color-profile functions, for some reason.

Anyway, I think unassigned images should always follow the copy-paste buffer behaviour.

Yeah, what this needs is better import behaviour.
