Blurred orange screen with f.lux
-
Hi,
I am using f.lux on my laptop (Z-book, Windows 10 Pro).
First,thanks for the great app!
Second, I started encountering a weird issue: when I hit alt+shift+end key combination (required for example in notepad++), my screen goes completely orange (absolutely blurred and almost impossible to read). Last time it happened ( a few minutes ago) I only managed to restore the normal state by looking hard for f.lux and closing/reopening it. This seems to reproduce consistently.
If that matters -- I am working with two montiors, connected via USB-C cable, but I recall it also occured with a single one. Moreover, today when the issue started, I disconnected the monitors but the laptop screen remained an orange blur as well.
- It seems to happen at sunset (at least, this was the case today - working from Israel).
- I have dark mode enabled in the Windows settings
I looked through the forum but didn't see a similar issue, except for the recommendation to disable NightLight - where do I find this setting?
Here are my driver details -

@ilyaf this looks like our "darkroom" hotkey, and so far we have flagged "Intel Iris Xe" as a problem with it but had not seen that regular UHD is a problem also. Are you on a 10th gen Intel GPU/CPU?
In the meantime, you can disable hotkeys using f.lux options.

@herf disabling hotkeys indeed helped.Thanks!
