How to set display gamma on High Sierra 10.13?

Anyone know how to set the display gamma on High Sierra (I have 10.13.1) to 2.2? I have a 27 inch iMac. Having trouble calibrating the display via a hardware device called a Spyder.

iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13.1), late 2012 27 inch iMac, 24 GB

My bad, you will need to open Color Calibrator Assistant in Expert Mode.


To do that, go to > Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Color > hold the ALT (option) key and click Calibrate...

Then click the Continue button until you get to Target Gamma....

Again, my bad... the Expert Mode check box was hidden a number of years and OS's ago.
