# KGamma2 Makes For Easy Gamma Adjustments On KDE Plasma With Wayland

**[Phoronix](https://daily.dev/sources/phoronix)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

KDE developer David Edmundson has released KGamma2, a new GUI tool that brings easy gamma adjustment support to KDE Plasma on Wayland. The original KGamma tool only worked under X11, leaving Wayland users without a simple way to adjust gamma. KGamma2 leverages KWin's existing color management capabilities via ICC profile VCGT without requiring new code in KWin or KScreen. Compared to the original, KGamma2 adds support for multiple monitors with independent gamma values, integrates with night color mode, supports color blending, and offers a smoother launch experience.
