Hi,
I'd like to programmatically operate on monitor color calibration on Windows 7 like the wizard "desktop properties/display/calibrate color", and I'd like to change the RGB values. Where can I start to search a solution? Which APIs are envolved?

Can you help me?

Regards,
Daniele

Hello Daniele,

SetDeviceGammaRamp is not a full monitor calibration. You should create an ICC profile for that.

You might want to look at the date on the question. I doubt you're going to get an answer 12 years after the fact.

~~I am not sure if I understood your question correctly. Take a look at SetSysColors on pinvoke.net[^].~~

Ignore, looks like I read the question wrong.

Hi all,
after a very long reverse engineering operation on dccw.exe I found that monitor color calibration can be performed via the SetDeviceGammaRamp api, I found also these link ;-) :
