#Basiccolor display software upgrade

How much 'simpler' can it get? All the targets listed right there, and 'create a new target' right underneath. But it seems they have made it so simple that it becomes useless for the core Eizo customer who actually wants return on investment. They seem terrified at the possibility they might scare someone away. What bothers me is the way they now bend over backwards to emphasize how 'simple' it all is. Luckily CN6 still works flawlessly under Win10, but for how long? I dread the day I have to upgrade. It just happens to write a profile at the end. ColorNavigator isn't just a calibrator - it's a complete control panel for all aspects of the monitor's behavior.

But does BasICColor access the internal LUT with Eizos, and for all adjustments? That's the crucial point. I did use BasICColor for a while with an NEC unit, some years ago. Thanks for listening, I'm mostly venting But I still hope for someone to come along and tell me I'm wrong. Any CN7 users out there who can tell me where I went wrong? I can't believe they have dumbed it down to this extent. What am I missing here? This is supposed to be the world's most sophisticated calibration software, for some of the finest displays on the market. Only the long list of pretty useless 'standard' targets were now available, standard meaning you can't edit them. One custom target was allowed, that was it. CAL1 and CA元 were now greyed out and inaccessible. Why 2? Why not 1? And why, for god's sake, are there only three? I need four or five, for different offset processes on coated/uncoated paper, glossy/matte, web output, in-house inkjet and so on.Īnyway, I then tried to make a second target. I managed to make one target and ran the profiling successfully for that. This used to be right up front - as it should be, it's a core function and the reason you're using a calibrator in the first place. You'd be forgiven for concluding it's no longer possible, so deeply is it buried inside nonsensical, ill-labeled submenus. What were they thinking? I had to RTFM not once, but three times before I discovered that it was, in fact, still possible to create your own calibration targets. Colornavigator 7 is easily the most unintuitive if not counter-intuitive calibrator I have ever used. I had it installed for precisely two days before I gave up, uninstalled it and reinstalled 6. I have a CG246/CX240 pair at work, and a CG2730 at home.

As a long time user of Colornavigator 6, which I always thought was a truly brilliant piece of software, I just built a new machine at work (I'm an art museum photographer) and decided this was a good time to upgrade to version 7.
