The time of sunset is defined in astronomy as the moment when the upper limb of the Sun disappears below the horizon. Near the horizon, atmospheric refraction causes sunlight rays to be distorted to such an extent that geometrically the solar disk is already about one diameter below the horizon when a sunset is observed.

tried uninstalling manually and it still behaves in this way. any advice or things to try would be appreciated.

I also had flux disabled for fullscreen apps. It's ok now though.

For everyone reading, the profile is a 10-bit calibration table from a Datacolor Spyder.

We are going to add support to our reader for this, but f.lux is ignoring it in the current build.

I usually refresh the wallpaper here.

Just making sure you know about the recall on these models?

f.lux has three times of day, and you can adjust the setting for each one separately.

Click each tab one at a time and it the way you like, or start with a preset (from the pulldown menu).

During the day, in between sunrise and sunset, change the color temperature to something that feels good. I expect you to prefer color temperatures that are no higher than maybe 3000 to 3500K. The lower the number, the less blue light there is.

Do the same during the night.

OK I figured it out. The icon for f.lux is tiny and I couldn't figure out what you meant by "to the left of your system clock" but I eventually found it and adjusted the color.

Whew!

@lights_out Just checking something: Do you have Apple's Night Shift feature enabled? Night Shift is Apple's clone of F.lux, only with fewer features and poorer color shifts IMHO. If you have both F.lux and Night Shift enabled at the same time, you'll get strange color shifts.

Since I like F.lux much better (!), I disabled Night Shift.

hello,
i was able to replicate this on three one-of-a-kind machines.

if you have iGPU (onboard Intel Video) enabled in the bios and drivers mounted, and you have an add-on video card (nvidia) established and number one, this blend will motive massive flickering.

In home windows, you need to force connect a non-existing "display" to the intel onboard video. This lets in for Intel short Sync era to paintings.

Why could you need the above setup? due to the fact, the above setup lets in you to take gain of Intel quick Sync to render/encode hardware improved video.
