Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention that I tried f.lux's software mouse cursor setting. I tried everything in the f.lux options. I'm using f.lux 4.78 and I don't plan to get a newer version until this is fixed!

Note: for me, this has nothing to do with this new Grayscale mode. I experienced this bug without even using that mode.

It's great isn't it? Unfortunatly I'm on a not so powerful pc at work and running windows 7.
Because aero is then needed the pc (well graphics drive) becomes very slow.

For your phone you can use Twilight. It's free and I just toggle it on/off when I want the blue out.

I am not experiencing this. There are two things I can recommend:

Try updating your graphic card drivers Go into options and select Very Fast: Gaming for transitions. This should give you the minimum transition time, so if you're having issues with transitions it should now just last a second or two and not a few minutes.

What's the difference between red and amber? Does red cut the blue light even more? If so I will use it.

I'm always maxed at 1900K candle. The red looks pretty HAL-ish lol. People always stare at my computer lol

After looking the official app and other programs use a SSDP service that is UPnP based which works fine. The official Phillips one is closed on a private cloud which requires a unique device authentication hash, so no go with that method on my end. Bummer.

@siltsunrise said in Settings help:

@twocables Damn, sometimes I have 2 sliders, sometimes 3, depending on what I set in that upper right dropdown menu. Could you guys make this a little more complicated, please? I have nothing better to do than get headaches over this instead of doing my work.

The only time you get 2 sliders is when you choose 'Classic F.lux'. It's the old style from F.lux v3. In v4, they added Bedtime, which is the 3rd slider. That's why when you choose 'Classic F.lux', you see a new menu item named "Classic F.lux" with check next to it to indicate that it's enabled. That's also why it goes away when you choose anything else.

So, it's not complicated at all.

@twocables He's right, it's still doing 150 at a time. Devs, this involves changing one number in your code. Is that so hard?

This is caused by Microsoft Night Light (it's not a problem with f.lux). Disable Night Light.
