@herf the problem is not back yet. I'll leave f.lux on tonight to see what happens.

@ValK_ Can you post f.lux options > driver info?

Hello! I think you will have to install the application on the remote computer. And as for the difference between citrix and remote desktop, I can say that both allow you to manage applications on a remote computer. But there are some differences between them https://www.helpwire.app/blog/citrix-vs-remote-desktop/ here is a detailed overview of one and the other, and there is a comparison.

@captainreynolds same here bud, I Uninstalled the app and then still stuck with the shortcut keys for the brightness control, Its making me crazy

Yes if you pick any other preset, it will take you out of this.
Also there is a "Classic f.lux" menu that you can uncheck to do it by hand.

Having the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

@fnhanks yes that's right. The only detail is: whenever you re-calibrate the screen, make sure to quit f.lux first and reload it after.

Thanks for the review of the problem. I’ve been getting similar problems during the last few weeks, and I didn’t know what to do.
I have tried to fix the problem myself, but I am not a professional, and I think I have made things even worse. My light bulbs are from vont.com, and I decided to contact them and ask for help. They answered quickly and offered to send me a pair of new smart bulbs for free instead of trying to fix the old ones. They said that this case was guaranteed and they had to deliver me new bulbs instead.
It was a nice surprise from them.

@5357ziv There was a post here with a reply from f.lux that they need to get an HDR monitor to test out issues there. And that a user said they disabled the HDR setting in Windows 10 and it seemed to hide the issue for them.

I'd guess your built in laptop screen is standard color and brightness, and the 5k screen is wide gamut and HDR.

One question I'd have...is SnagIt supposed to get exactly what you see or what would be shown normally without f.lux?

It'd be nice to get the normal UI, but I can imagine it not knowing how to remove whatever f.lux does to the screen. I have no idea if there is an API to allow changing what users physically see without altering what other programs read (for screenshot grabs).

@sleepwakecycle (Random internet person here who has used F.lux a lot)

Don't think their UI lets us do that. I have the same issue in my location. Using 8am allows an hour or two of less color shift before really mangling the colors. But 6am is a straight shot.

I agree you're not alone in wanting that much control. I'll bet night shift workers would benefit from being able to force changes outside of the normal day/night cycle (that they likely block outside light from windows anyway). Wish this was Open Source so users could add that.
