Question

Can't change color profile. Figma goes back to the other option after I select for example sRGB

Hi,

I recently switched the color profile to Display P3 for the first time, just to try it out. Now, when I try to switch back, Figma won’t let me. It keeps reverting to Display P3 every time I attempt to change it.

Could you help me with this?

Hey there, sorry to hear you are having trouble to switch back on the color profile!

To cover some basics, please first switch your color profile, then force-quit Figma to see if that helps.

As a reminder to switch the color profile:

  1. Open any file you have access to.
  2. Open the Figma menu.
  3. Go to Preferences > Color profile.
  4. From the Color profile settings modal, make sure the correct color profile is selected: sRGB or Display p3.
  5. Click to close the modal and save your settings.

If the issue occurs, please clear out the cache on desktop app, browser or both (if the issue happens everywhere). Sometimes, cache issues can cause settings to behave inconsistently. Clearing the cache can help.

Still, if the issue persists, I’d recommend you to reach out directly to the support team for further investigation here.
Be sure to use your Figma email account, specify whether the issue occurs on the browser, desktop app, or both, and include a short video clip showing your attempt to switch the color profile. This will help our team investigate the issue more effectively.

I hope this helps!
