I don't doubt much of what you say, but the simple fact is this is something that clearly worked... and now doesn't. Ironically, it seems to be working in PSD now. Our brand team also went to great lengths to ensure all of our colors worked for all of the necessary applications, which is why we use specific HEX codes that are all video safe. Do monitors change things? Of course... I've been an editor for over 25 years including at some of the biggest post houses in NY. I've been a devout Adobe user since 1995. We've all had clients that tweak a hue 2 degrees knowing full well it isn't going to make a difference for most... but do we just give up? Sounds pretty lazy to me. We already discovered AE was lightening our darker brand color's brightness and made the adjustment. Do you work for Adobe? Because you sound like an Adobe apologist. Regardless of its orientation, this is a feature that Adobe touted, clearly worked and now does not. Personally, I wish Adobe would stop with the full upgrades... not once a year, but twice! Why?! By the time we figure out the bugs and work arounds for 1 version, they've created a new one with a whole new set of bugs and made updating older projects more difficult. I lasted on CS6 for 6 years... less features? Sure... but knowing the program inside and out, its bugs, its limitations, I could do more, faster than we can now. But working in a team environment, I have no choice but to keep up with everyone else. I would stay on 2018, but we don't even have an option of down saving a premiere project... so again, no choice. Take a look around...not just on this site, but across the net... a lot of us have obviously been using the feature as one would expect it to work in AE, as it did work in AE, and are now having a problem. And it's not simply a "little off" as one might expect from a picker... the color on screen is absolutely the same if I have it in the doc and put it next to the color chip on the library... the doc picks it perfect, and the library is waaay off... I mean dropping Sat by 30, changing the red by 60! So while you may have explanations, the fact remains there is a bug in the new version of AE that should be fixable short of rolling back to 2018. In this day and age, and the enormous cost to "rent" this software why 'splain away problems, and not stand up and insist Adobe fix the issue?
