Was working in Illustrator and had created an image with a fill in Blue. Had to reinstall Illustrator and now Blue fill comes up as Purple on the image even though it's still Blue on the swatch.Document color mode is set to RGB color. Not sure what I'm doing wrong

    CHeck your color management setup and the monitor calibration. Also the soft proof setup.

    Thanks so much for your help Monika. I disabled the GPU performance and all back to blue again

        For anyone who is wondering how the GPU Preview works:

        Tl;dr

        Cmnd/Ctrl + E will disable/enable the discolouration. Alternatively, Go to View > GPU Preview/CPU Preview to toggle back to the desired Preview.
