           Summary: Show warning or info message when not working with
                    color management in Image Editor
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: simon.eu at gmail.com


Version:           1.0.0-beta6 (rev.: 1039716) (using 4.3.2 (KDE 4.3.2), Debian
packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31-5.slh.4-sidux-686

Introduction: I've been shooting in RAW at night, with flashlight and other
light sources. Opened them in the digikam Image Editor, RAW Import Wizard.
Everything looked okay. But after importing the white balance seems to have
changed quite a lot (everything was something between yellow and brown), and
whatever I did, I had no chance to get the original colours with good
saduration etc. back.

After a while I found out that I did set a monitor profile in the settings, but
the checkbox «Use color managed view in editor» was not enabled. After checking
it the colours looked normal again. 

Now it might be useful to check this boxes by default and to ask users updating
to 1.0 whether they would like to activate color managed view too.
