Hi, everyone!

According to the official document, If you check the "Preference > Color Management > Filter Dialog > Show Advanced color options", you can access the advanced color option in Filter dialog. However, I was not able to find any difference between the enabled this option and not.

Would you give me a some example of Filter dialog and how this option works?

Thanks in advance!

Environment: Windows 10, GIMP 2.10.36

Just look in various Color menu filters, this example.

All the same dialogue about using RGB rather than the defined colour space (such as PhotoGamut.icc).  I don't use this option but I suppose if you are distributing the image and know that recipients will only use RGB you might use it.

Edit: You have me looking for info now Wink
Plenty about advanced this-and-that that do not actually use this option but this one from Elle Stone about the desaturation filter. Thinks it is not a good idea.

Are you looking for this?
Check,  Filters - Generic - Convolution Matrix and you can expand  Advanced colour options in that window.

Looks like it is in a lot of the GEGL filters
Thanks a lot, rich2005 and sallyanne. Your comments are so much helpful Smile
Indeed you need to activate it in the preferences, top menu Edit Preferences, a window opens, go to Color Management on the right side at the very bottom activate the Show Advanced color options

Then in all GEGL filters (filters taged with a  gegl ) and most in Colors and elsewhere you will have that:

Basically ALL filters who support the canvas Preview AND the Split view
