- <h3>Summary</h3>
- This tool has several different but related functions. When given as
- a file argument an ICC profile containing vcgt "gamma" curves, or an
- Argyll video calibration .cal file, it will load that calibration
- into the chosen display. It can also install or uninstall a profile
- in the system for the chosen display, or set the display calibration
- to that in the currently installed system profile. By default it
- displays a test window the same as that used by dispcal and
- dispread, to test this functionality. It can also be used to test
- the ability to load video card LUT curves to each display, and to
- test how the console Bell will sound when used with some instruments
- (ie. Eye-One Pro).<br>
- <br>
- [Note that in OS X 10.7 Lion, changes to the default system profile
- permissions mean that you can't set a calibration persistently when
- the default system profile is being used, unless you run as root
- (ie. use sudo). Note that you do <span style="font-weight: bold;">not</span>
- need to run as root to install a user profile (-Su, the default
- install type.)]<br>

- <br>
- <a name="P"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-P</span>
- parameter allows you to position and size the test patch window. By
- default it is places in the center of the screen, and sized
- appropriately for the type of instrument, or 10% of the width of the
- display if the display size is unknown.. The <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">ho</span> and <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">vo</span> values govern the horizontal
- and vertical offset respectively. A value of 0.0 positions the
- window to the far left or top of the screen, a value of 0.5
- positions it in the center of the screen (the default), and 1.0
- positions it to the far right or bottom of the screen. If three
- parameters are provided, then the <span style="font-weight: bold;">ss</span>
- parameter is a scale factor for the test window size. A value of 0.5
- for instance, would produce a half sized window. A value of 2.0 will
- produce a double size window. If four parameters are provided, then
- the last two set independent horizontal and vertical scaling
- factors. Note that the ho,vo,ss or ho,vo,hs,vs numbers must be
- specified as a single string (no space between the numbers and the
- comma). For example, to create a double sized test window at the top
- right of the screen, use <span style="font-weight: bold;">-P 1,0,2</span>
- . To create a window twice as wide as high: <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">-P 1,0,2,1</span>.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="F"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-F</span>
- flag causes the while screen behind the test window to be masked
- with black. This can aid black accuracy when measuring CRT displays
- or projectors.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="E"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-E</span>
- flag causes the test values to be scaled to the Video RGB encoding
- range of 16/255 to 235/255. Note that this is not applicable if the
- MadVR render is being used to display patches, as MadVR should be
- configured for Video encoding instead.<br>
- <br>
- By default <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span> will put
- a test window on the selected display, and display some test colors,
- before darkening then brightening the screen by loading video
- LUT values, test the bell sounds, then restore the original values
- and exit.<br>
- <br>
- If the <a name="i"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-i</span>
- flag is set, then <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span>
- will display the preset sequence, then random test colors forever.<br>
- <br>
- If the <a name="G"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-G</span>
- parameter is set, then <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span>
- will display the sequence of RGB color in the supplied CGATS file,
- e.g. a .ti1 file. Typically this might the used with the <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">-m</span> option to manually measure a
- set of test patches.<br>
- <br>
- If the <a name="m"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-m</span>
- flag is set, then <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span>
- will display the preset sequence then exits, but advances manually
- after each return key.<br>
- <br>
- If the <a name="r"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-r</span>
- flag is set, then <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span>
- will test just the loading of video LUT values by first darkening,
- then lightening the screen, before exiting.<br>
- <br>
- If the <a name="n"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-n</span>
- flag is set, then <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span>
- will display the colors directly on the display, rather than having
- the color values translated through the currently loaded Video LUTs.
- In the case of using the MadVR renderer to display the patches, any
- 3dLut will also be disabled.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="s"></a> If a <span style="font-weight: bold;">-s <span
- style="font-style: italic;">filename.cal</span></span> option is
- used, then rather than displaying a test window, <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span> will save the currently
- loaded calibration curves to the given calibration file. Note that
- other functions such as clearing or loading a calibration can be
- performed after this action.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="c"></a> If a <span style="font-weight: bold;">-c</span>
- flag is used, then rather than displaying a test window, <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">dispwin</span> will load the selected
- display with a linear set of Video LUT curves, effectively clearing
- the calibration, and will then exit. Note that other functions such
- as loading a calibration can be performed after this action.<span
- style="font-style: italic;"></span><br>
- <br>
- <a name="V"></a> If a <span style="font-weight: bold;">-V</span>
- flag is used, then rather than loading the calibration specified as
- the final argument, the currently loaded calibration will be
- verified as being the same as the given calibration file. If this is
- combined with the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span
- style="font-weight: bold;">-L</span></span> flag, the currently
- loaded calibration will be verified as being the same as the
- installed system profile for the display.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="I"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-I</span>: The ICC
- profile specified as the final argument will be installed as the
- default operating system profile for the chosen display, and the
- display calibration will be set to the calibration tag ('vcgt' tag,
- if any) in that profile.. On MSWindows and OS X this means that the
- profile will be copied to the appropriate color profile directory
- and registered with the operating system. For Linux X11 systems, the
- profile will be installed using the <a href="ucmm.html">ucmm</a>
- convention, and the X11 _ICC_PROFILE property in the root window,
- and also the the XrandR 1.2 X11 _ICC_PROFILE output property on
- systems that are running XrandR 1.2 or later. The latter is
- following this <a
- href="http://www.burtonini.com/computing/x-icc-profiles-spec-0.2.html">convention</a>
- for allowing applications to locate the display profile for a
- particular X11 display, and expands it to accomodate XrandR 1.2.
- Note that for X11 systems, the properties are not persistent, and
- will need to be loaded each time the X11 server is started (see the
- <a href="#L">-L</a> flag). To make sure that the profile calbration
- 'vcgt' tag gets loaded into the Graphics Card at system start,
- please read the guide <a href="dispprofloc.html">here</a>.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="U"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-U</span>: The ICC
- profile specified as the final argument will be un-installed as the
- default operating system profile for the chosen display. The display
- calibration will remain unchanged.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="S"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-S</span> d: Some
- systems have more than one profile scope that an installed profile
- will apply to, and this parameter allows overriding the default user
- scope. On OS X, there is a choice of three scopes: <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">n</span>: for network scope, if people
- are sharing profiles over a network, <span style="font-weight:
- bold;">l</span>: local system scope, which installs the profile
- for all users of a system, and the default <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">u</span>, which covers just the user
- installing the profile. On Linux or Microsoft Vista, just the local
- system <span style="font-weight: bold;">l</span> and user <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">u</span> scope are available. Note that
- you may need to run dispwin with elevated privileges(sudo) to be
- able to successfully use network or local system scope. This option
- also applies to uninstalling a profile. Note that to install a user
- profile for the root account, you will have to login as root (sudo
- will not achieve this).<br>
- <br>
- <a name="L"></a> <span style="font-weight: bold;">-L</span>: This
- option fetches the current installed system profile for the chosen
- display, and sets the display to the calibration tag ('vcgt' tag, if
- any) in the profile. This is a convenient way of initializing the
- display on system startup from the installed display profile, if the
- system doesn't not do this automatically .<br>
- <br>
- <a name="X"></a> <span style="font-weight: bold;">-X</span>: Daemon
- mode (experimental). When running on a UNIX based system that used
- the X11 Windowing System, this option runs dispwin in a "daemon"
- mode where it monitors the given X11 server, waiting for any changes
- in monitors that may require loading a matching ICC profile (ie.
- such as re-configuring, plugging in a different monitor etc.)
- This only works if XRandR 1.2 is available on the server. By default
- dispwin runs silently, and will not terminate. If the <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">-v</span> option is given, it will emit
- messages to stdout to show what it is doing. When it is first
- invoked, it will load the installed profiles of all the screens of
- the given X11 server.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="D"></a>The <b>-D</b> flag causes diagnostics to be printed
- to stdout. A level can be set between 1 .. 9, that may give
- progressively more verbose information. This can be useful in
- tracking down why an operation fails.<br>
- <br>
- <a name="p1"></a> The final optional parameter on the command line
- is the name of an ICC profile that contains a Video LUT <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">vcgt</span> tag, or an Argyll <a
- href="cal_format.html">.cal</a> format display calibration. If
- this parameter is provided, then the selected display will be loaded
- with the given calibration. If the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-V</span>
- flag was given, then it is verified that this calibration is the
- currently loaded one. This may be useful in initializing a
- system to the current calibration on system startup, although a
- better way may be to install the profile (<span style="font-weight:
- bold;">-I</span> option), and then just use <span
- style="font-weight: bold;">-L</span>. Note that the vcgt tag
- interpretation within Argyll is consistent with that of the
- originators of the tag. Other ICC profile vcgt implementations may
- not be so consistent.<br>
- <br>
- <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE</span> that on an X11 system,
- if the environment variable <span style="font-weight: bold;">ARGYLL_IGNORE_XRANDR1_2</span>
- is set (ie. set it to "yes"), then the presence of the XRandR 1.2
- extension will be ignored, and other extensions such as Xinerama and
- XF86VidMode extension will be used. This may be a way to work around
- buggy XRandR 1.2 implementations.<br>
- <span style="font-weight: bold;"><br>
- NOTE</span> on MSWin systems that you will have to disable any
- other calibration installer program if you want to be able to
- control calibration using dispwin. Note also that there are other
- programs that will interfere with calibration loading, such as
- igfxpers.exe that gets installed with nVidia "Optimus" technology.<br>
