Hi! Is there an option in ColourSpace DPS to present the light measurement in Foot Lambert instead of Nits?
Regards,
Jan

Foot Lamberts have not been used for brightness measurements for any displays - monitors and projectors - for some time, and were removed from LightSpace/ColourSpace a long time ago.

We are using Foot Lamberts every time for measurements in our visual systems, so I don't think it's obsolete everywhere.

We know of no display standard that still uses FtL?
What is your visual system, and why are you using FtL?

In flight simulator visual systems every manufacturer always use FtL in the specifications. Guess it has historical reasons.

Do you have the specification standard documents?
All such setups we have ever seen used nits.

Here are some information: https://www.easa.europa.eu/en/downloads/46529/en
I see that they specify both cd/m and FtL, for brightness, but I think it's more common to use only FtL, at least what I have seen.

Thanks for the link.
Based on reading that, I would use nits (Cd/m), as FtL is in brackets as a secondary measurement option.
