Is Your Display Accuracy Undermining Your Report Design?
When designing complex reports and data visualizations, precision is everything. However, I’ve found that many developers completely ignore the fact that their monitors might be lying to them. If you are working on a screen with uneven brightness or backlight bleeding, you are not seeing the true contrast and layout of your reports. I now use a method to try it here to verify my monitor's uniformity before finalizing any design. I’d argue that if your screen isn't perfectly calibrated, your reports won't look the same on your client’s hardware. Do you think hardware calibration is vital for report developers, or are we just splitting hairs over minor display issues?
