You don't need to use Location Services. Don't click the white button with the little arrow in it. Just enter "perth australia" into the box, and press Search. That will manually set your location.
Forget what I said. I was wrong. The location search is not case-sensitive; it is just slow.
The first time I typed "amsterdam" and an empty window popped up. The second time I typed "Amsterdam" and Google Maps opened. The first time, I thought the search failed, therefore I tried again. May I suggest to show a spinner or barberpole animation while Google Maps is loading? That might give the user just the amount of feedback needed not to press Cancel and just wait a bit longer?
Agree having the option to invoke Dark Room Mode at a user-defined time would be great. What if the user could set a time for the switch-over, and there was a notification box that pops up several minutes beforehand. (similar to the warning box you see if the computer is set to sleep at a certain time.) There could be an option to switch immediately, cancel, snooze, etc.
definitely agree that this could be given a better name as I came to this page looking for exactly the same information. It should also be disabled by default because its incredibly annoying
I think you are right. I think this wasn't flux, but a backup program I had running. I thought it was flux because it is the newest software on my machine. There must be an issue with an update to the backup software... Thanks for that other link too.
