Colors are displayed differently between pages
InDesign 13.0.1 on iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017) OS 10.13.3
Open a CMYK document. Place an sRGB file on page 1. Place the same (or copy) on page 2.
Expected: the colors on both pages look the same.
Actual result: With color-proof switched off, the colors on page 1 show as if color-proof turned on while on page 2 the colors show correctly. See screenshots with the same files on 2 pages. I changed nothing I just moved the picture from one page to the other.
With color-proof turned on all pages look like page 1.
Thanks for reporting.
We will review the bug

Holger S. said: "Correction: This only occurs when there is a transparent (RGB) Illustrator file on the same page. This makes the page render as color-proof."
Right, Holger.
And therefore this behavior is NO bug at all.Regards,

Is there a workaround potentially? -

Thanks Tiago,
It also worked for me!Choose Edit > Transparency Blend Space. Then chose either CMYK or RGB

@Tiago, thanks for pointing the blend space > RGB
That was it :)
I already noticed during proofing no difference. Was looking in the transparency settings.

Tiago's suggestion worked for me as well. Thanks a lot, Tiago!

Same here. Tiago’s suggestion worked for me though:
Edit > Transparency Blend Space > pick yours -

This happens to me in CMYK documents that have both RGB and CMYK elements in them. Try changing the Transparency Blend Space (under the Edit dropdown menu) to "Document RGB" if you want all your colors to display bright.

This is still an issue

If you have an element that has transparency lower than 100%, it will start looking weird.

One work around to this is to create a new page (colours should display properly on the new page), copy the contents you need onto this new page and delete the old one. Worked for me!

colour differences on pages effects not just images but the colours on the page. (say a panel of cyan on one page is bright and next page desaturated) Also effects exported pdfs.

Apparently same problem in 2020 with InDesign 15.0.2

MacOs 10.15.3 - InDesign 15.0.2 - MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, 4 TB Ports) - Intel Iris Graphics 550
Imported images colors are displayed differently between pages.
Seems like the color management is working weirdly when using GPU.See my video screen shot.
Doc is sRGB, both images are sRGB, 2 pages with same file. I'm moving around an imported PSD also sRGB.The problem disappeared when using CPU preview.
(could be the same problem as this bug report, but version and time are very different)
