Linear Color Space affecting IMGUI Textures?

We're experimenting with Linear Color Space in our game, and noticed that changing from Gamma to Linear has changed the look of our custom inspector panels.

For example, drawing a simple texture in an editor window:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. var tex = new Texture2D(1, 1, TextureFormat.RGBA32, false);
3. tex.SetPixel(0, 0, new Color(.4f, 0, 0, 1));
4. tex.Apply();
5. var rect = GUILayoutUtility.GetRect(100, 100);
6.  GUI.DrawTexture(rect, tex);
7.        

Linear:


Gamma:


It's also affecting the embedded textures in our windows.

Linear:

Gamma:


What gives? Is this expected behavior? there a way to turn it off?

 

Bump.

 

I would like to know this as well.

 

Having exact same issue. Was driving me nuts trying to figure out what messed up all the colors of my custom inspector images. Turns out it was switching to linear color space.

 

This got to be a bug?

 

Anyone solved this yet?

 

If you're drawing in the Editor, EditorGUI.DrawTextureTransparent seems to behave with linear/srgb
