"Hi Mike Purdy here with Expert Village. And, we're talking about Paint Shop Pro. Here's a feature of Paint Shop Pro. If you go looking through 'preferences', not only can you set the various program preferences like how you like the windows displayed on your computer and your dialogs and pallets, whether or not you want to empty the clipboard on exit, which I think is a good thing to check because your clipboard will get full. This is under Monitor Gamma. Now, Monitor Gamma you can see if we throw it out of what here. Then, these start to show up here. The Monitor Gamma is how the monitor actually displays colors. And, you can tweak the colors somewhat with this Monitor Gamma adjustment. It's very easy. You just slide them until you no longer see the square here. Here's red. Here's green. And, here's blue. This is a way to very quickly adjust your monitor. I'm not sure how accurate this is. But, it is a way to quickly adjust your monitor so that the colors you're seeing on screen are the actual colors, or as close to them as possible, as the colors you're going to get when you print it or import it into a video."
