How do I get the exact color that I entered?

I am aware that Maya has built in filters like sRGB, Gamma, etc. .

So I thought that the best thing would be to change it to Raw.

But then the color displayed was a lot darker than the numbers I put in and even if I managed to correct that with the Ambient Color the rendered image would have another shade.
I really need things to have the exact color that I give them, both in viewport and on the rendered image.
Any ideas how?

Hi!

If you use color management you need to use it everywhere (and also the renderer has to support it).

If you don't want to use color management, then i recommend to disable it in Preferences.

Every other mixed settings will lead to color discrepancies.
