Hello! I am having issues with my external display- specifically the colors. The colors on my external display are off. White isn't as white as it should be- instead is a more muted purple/pink. The blue in my background also appears purple/pink. HOWEVER, when I close my device (clamshell mode) the colors on the external display are CORRECT. The second I open the display- it's messed up again. I've tried a lot of ChatGPT methods and just can't figure this out. Please help.
 
In System Settings / Display colors and calibration is True Tone turned on? If so, turn it off and see if that affects your problem. If not, check (and turn off) Night Shift in the same area.
