What is the impact of "Effects and extra colors " options on blue light emission ?
-
F.lux is marvelous but i have an urgent question : if i enable , for exemple , "Blue Sky" mode from "Effects and extra colors" section, will there be an impact or increase of blue light emission amount ? Thank you.
-
Yes. They're just effects for fun.
-
Ok, thank you, i was just afraid that the "Blue Sky" mode causes the generation of blue light because in "Blue Sky" mode, there is a word "blue" .

Well yeah it does. If you're seeing blue, you're seeing blue. I mean, that's pretty much all there is to it.

It shouldn't be more blue - all we can do usually is take away light.
The circadian response number that appears in the UI is pretty complicated, but you can rely on it to be correct.

It seems to be more blue to me. If I choose 800K, "circadian response" says 0%. If I switch to Blue Sky, it says 41%.
If I choose Sky Blue while I have 6500K selected, it says 50%. Plain 6500K says 58%.
