  @lorna -- Is your team aware about color issues with fullscreen chrome videos with f.lux? Colors that are white, or near white, show up quite distorted in fullscreen videos on my system. I was really excited about night mode in osx because it solved that problem for me, but after reading the above thread I would like to continue using f.lux. But the distortion is really frustrating!

  Use rainmeter app for customizing your desktop background and it has lots of cool skins.

  We use the last piece of bundle name, because asking macOS for the full name uses 300% as much CPU.

  I could probably fix this but that is the reason.

  Have you tried "dim on disable"? It may help.

  Regarding your question:

  The system in the eye that adapts to color (and brightness) takes several minutes to adjust fully.

  So one case for this feature is if you are using Photoshop and quickly responding to some IM messages or emails that come in. And basically you want to stay adapted to the "brighter" condition and not roll back and forth.

  In this case, it turns out flipping between settings very quickly is incredibly disconcerting...the early prototypes were so bad I held back for a couple years on shipping the feature at all. (I thought the slower transition helped a lot!)

  There is no good solution in f.lux right now for changing between white pages and dark ones, but it is important I agree. We have had prototypes of this for years but they basically involve hitting the GPU pretty hard to figure out what the screen contents currently are....impacts battery and overall performance, etc. (There are ways to do this but they are not exposed by the OS.)

  Just installed Vanilla on Sierra: free tier allows you to hide icons, paid tier lets you remove them.

  Works great!

  @lorna I have f.lux set to start on login, I use custom color settings, I have notifications and backwards alarm clock set, and no color effects selected. The other disable options work fine (for 1 hour, until sunrise, and for full-screen apps) - just the option to disable for specific apps doesn't work. That's a real problem for me because I discover that I have been editing photos with f.lux active, so the colors are wrong!

  @herf Honestly no, I get the same amount of sleep on the days I wake up at 8:00 vs 5:45. I simply go to bed earlier. I aim for 7 hours and 30 min of sleep each night. (Sometimes that happens, sometimes it doesn't.) This is where I have the issue. My screen either warms too early (which is annoying) or too late (which affects my sleep). I actually don't mind the backwards alarm clock.I like it because I do not have a set schedule and it reminds me how late it actually is. It's saved my butt before!

  @lorna said in All I want to do is set the screen's color temperature.:

  @TwoCables You can just change the sliders by dragging, you don't need to change location!

  Not for 800K. I should've mentioned that. hehe I was off in my own world.

  @CapybaraGold This is a problem with a 2014 version of macOS, which also has serious security issues, so you should update your Mac.
