Display of abstract profiles

Why does ColorThink not display abstract profiles? They can be considered as the profile of a device (albeit an abstract one) and they are displayed in ColorSync.

I’ve been considering ways of doing this and adding the feature…

What gamut would you like to see? In most cases abstract profiles alter color within the space but do not alter the outgoing gamut so it is the same 0->100, -128->127, -128->127 Lab “box” that was the source color. Is this “box” useful in a graph? At one time I thought not but perhaps it is. I would be nice to see the resulting “gamut” shape of some of these profiles if they in fact ‘squish it down’ as part of the transform…

Steve
