Arnold Hypershade dark icon shader

[SauloSatoshi]

Hello,

I'm starting to work with Arnold Stardard Surface shader and the icons in the Hypershade are really dark. Quite different from the Material Viewer. And I have the Enable Swatch Render checked. Does anyone know what could be happening? Thanks in advance.

The material viewer isn't using Arnold (in those screenshots).

What's the view transform in your color management preferences?

Awesome!! Thanks @Stephen Blair!! Issue Solved thanks to you! 😃

The "Enable Color Management" was unchecked.Now the icons are better to see.

Some of them are looking like a low poly sphere though. Do you know if it is something normal to happen?

Could be something about the shader tree for that material. The swatch is just a distant light shining a sphere, rendered with 1 AA sample. Does the material viewer look better?

Yes, the material viewer got lighter as well. The viewport and the rendered image also changed and got lighter. Should I keep this "Enable Color Management" checked to render as well? I'm using Arnold to render.
