What people use a orange screen for
Warm sunset ambience
An orange screen gives a warm, golden-hour glow with very little blue light — pleasant as a relaxed ambient light behind a TV or desk in the evening, and as seasonal decoration in autumn or at Halloween.
High-visibility and safety backdrop
Orange stands out strongly against most surroundings, so an orange screen works well as a signal or backdrop for signage, events and photography.
Red-and-green sub-pixel check
Orange mixes a lot of red with some green and no blue, so it helps verify that both of those sub-pixels respond correctly across the panel.
As a test pattern, a flat orange field makes a dead or stuck pixel jump out, and it exercises the red and green sub-pixels.
