The Color Management Settings
The Color Management options allow for display color management to be activated or deactivated. There are numerous preset that can be selected from the Display Color Profile drop box for each monitor connected to the system (Figure 1). Additionally, OctaneRender® has implemented the Academy Color Encoding System (ACES), which uses the Open Color IO (OCIO) color management standard.
