How to view white values using the OCIO config

Hi,

I'm to incorporate OCIO into my workflow which requires heavy use of text. When it comes to using white text, it turns out to be grey instead. I'm rendering out from Maxon redshift and using the ACES 1.3 CG v1.0.

Basically, I want to view pure white text within an OCIO setup.

Is there a workaround for this issue using the new OCIO effects?

I'm looking for the same solution. There are a few options to get the white: 

1. use OCIO Color Space Transform and convert these from sRGB to ACEScg

2. use RGB values higher than 1... 3 for example
These will get you a white color, but for some reason it messes up antialias also and you'll get sharp edges. Not sure how to go around this error.

Alpha fix - you can somewhat fix the alpha error with Curves applied only for Alpha channel.
