"View Using GPU" Greys Out Using Images with "ProPhoto RGB" Colour Profiles
AI Version: 25.2
OS: MacOS 11.2.1
Using GPU Preview
MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)
Problem:
- "View Using GPU" is visible and enabled
- Adding linked images (in this case a JPEG) with a "ProPhoto RGB" colour profile applied to the image file will cause "View Using GPU" to become disabled and greyed out.
Expected Behaviour:
- Linked Images with any colour profile applied should not effect the ability to use the "View Using GPU" setting.
Workaround:
- Open the image in Photoshop and convert it to another colour profile like sRGB IEC61966-2.1 then save the image.
- Delete the image from your AI file, close your AI file and reopen it and relink the new image.
