Description Colin 2025-01-01 12:33:07 UTC
SUMMARY
Gamma -- System Setting slider controls are not labeled correctly but are still useful as is. The labels need to be corrected.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings selecting "Display & Monitor > Gamma"
2. Move the sliders around that are labeled "Gamma", "Red", "Green", and "Blue"

OBSERVED RESULT
"Gamma" slider sets the other 3 equal in numerical value and slides them all together, changing brightness, gamma, and tint all at once.
"Red" slider changes either the gamma or the brightness, I'm not sure which
"Green" slider changes either the gamma or the brightness, I'm not sure which
"Blue" slider changes the tint between green at the lowest setting and violet at the highest setting

EXPECTED RESULT
These sliders are useful as is except for "Gamma", but they are not labeled correctly. As labeled, I would expect each to change what they say they would change. I think it would be better to simply correct the labels and remove the slider that moves all together instead of changing how the sliders function in order to match the labels.
