Photoshop CS6.
In color settings, "Ask When Pasting" is checked.
If I copy data from a file that is untagged into a file that is tagged, there's no warning. If each file has a profile and they don't match, there is a warning. Is there a way to force a warning here, or is this an Adobe oversight?
Copying untagged data into a tagged file is just like assigning the tagged file's profile to the incoming data, which isn't necessarily what is wanted.
For example, if I have an untagged document from a scanner that doesn't embed a profile, my first step should be to assign the custom scanner profile and convert it to a working space, like ProPhoto RGB. However, I'm brain dead and miss this step and later copy into a document already using the ProPhoto RGB, the RGB values of course remain unchanged, but they're interpreted differently, causing a gigantic shift in color.
I've turned on Missing Profiles Ask When Opening which should prevent me from doing this in the future, but still seems like it should warn in this situation.
