I edited a picture for selective color in RT, but the output is nowhere near the what is displayed. What should be bright orange is washed out.
Can someone please help me with what settings (I assume its in the color space) that I need to change to have my jpg look like my my display in RT.
What screen profile do you use in RT? (you can see it at the bottom of the editing window)
If its the drop-down in the bottom center, then it was set to none. What do you recommend? The same as the output?
I’ve never really played with the settings in that area before, but now I just discovered the button to highlight out of gamut pixels, and sure enough when I selected the same as my output, they were all out of gamut.
If I view at 33%, the letters appear rather white:
The preview at small zoom can be deceptive.
Moreover, the lab curve is ill formed as there are two values for same abscissa:
Thanks all. I was able to amp up the color using color toning and got more of the effect I was looking for.
Either it is a bug in the fit to width preview or the color is outside of sRGB and/but your screen can show it.
My recommendation would be that you create a profile for your screen with a colorimeter and use softproof.
I wish there was some way to accomplish this without needed hardware. My budget does not currently have room for a colorimeter and I don’t know anyone to borrow it from 
@chaimav This suggestion shouldn’t be step one. Always check at 1:1 zoom to ensure you get what you want before you export. The scaled preview is only accurate up to a certain degree.
I wrestled with this a lot, especially when I had a desk at work with two Dell monitors that had clearly different display gamuts. I ended up buying a ColorMunki…
At home, I used that device to characterize my desktop and Surface 3 tablet displays, and found that both were within a couple of percent of sRGB. Indeed, the desktop monitor has a sRGB setting, and that nails the sRGB space considered by the colorimeter and dispcal. And now, I work at home, and those office monitors have gone to the recycler… This is a bit of heresy, but if you have a monitor that’s close to sRGB, you might get away with just using one of @Elle’s sRGB profiles as your display profile.
All that said, I now wish I’d have spent the extra $200US on a spectrometer device. I’m now contemplating what it would take to measure cameras spectral response in the comfort of my basement, and that sort of device would be more appropriate in that application than the three-channel colorimeter.
Always check eBay for used equipment, you should be able to snag a spider or similar for fairly cheap.
