Have you folks notice that when you try to reset the Primary color by clicking the "Reset primary in" button resets everything including the RED Room value but actually the display does not go back to the real default?

Say you set it to REC709 gamma instead of REDspace, then click Reset primary in then the gamma display stays at REC709 but actually went back to REDspace. So whatever work you continue to apply would be under REDspace instead of REC709. I had to rework many time for nothing because of this bug.

The cure is to get out of that clip and come back to continue working.

Yes I've noticed this today.
 
I've also noticed many times the ISO display would drop to 100 without actually changing the image. That means I have to remember what my ISO actually was, or click around and guess.

By the way, any way to apply a color space to all clips in Color at once?

That will be nice feature.

Use the "Copy To All" button just below the RED tab to copy the settings from one clip to all clips in the timeline.
 
Yes, I've noticed the "reset primary in" bug too. Hopefully this will be fixed on the next update.
 
Also watch out for the situation where you switch on and off your grade to compare pre and post. It switches the grade on and off for anything adjusted outside of the RED room but does not take into account changes made within the RED room - Not that this is a 'bug' exactly but one to be aware of.
 
I had some mixed clips with uncompressed and wrapped QT then crashed in Color, then I had to replace the preference file to be able to boot Color again.
