What can we fix in Illustrator (desktop)? Vote or report a bug.

Blue is now purple

When selecting a vibrant blue with the color-picker it shows it correctly and when it is applied it looks purple. (the color's HEX is correct though)

This also happens when I drag&drop an image that has vibrant blue colors in it.

Any ideas why this is happening?

    YES! This is terrible in any program ... but especially a graphic program!
    To have colors changing and not even displaying anywhere close to what they actually are makes it next to impossible to do design work.

    Carlos, you're a genius and a life saver - thank you!

    Is there maybe a quick fix for this??

    (even though when you save the files, they end up looking correct, I would still like to be able to visualise them before haha)

    I'm seeing exactly the same issue - colour picking from blue and getting violets/purples
