    Can transition speeds be different for natural transition and manual transition?

      Hello, first off I love f.lux in a way words can't explain, its helped me so much on a problem that I found difficult to explain to some people that don't experience headaches and uneasy-ness from PC screens.

      Now to my problem, I changed the transition speed to "Gaming" as seen here:

      So that when pressing Alt+End (to watch a movie or play a game), the transition would happen quickly, neat!
      However, it seems to have also changed the transition times for the natural day cycle, as seen here:

      Which is less desirable for me.

      Is there a way to set the two transition times separately? If not, could it be added in future versions? I'm certain that there are more people this could be relevant to.

      Thank you.

        I would also love for this to happen. I like the slow transitions as time changes, but I want the pause and resume (especially when closing a full-screen game) to happen very fast.

          Agree this is a critical feature. The whole point of f.lux is to prevent bright, blue light late in the day, but that's entirely defeated, and then some, when switching out of a game or a full-screen video and having a browser or other app suddenly blast a blinding white light. I set it to the gaming transition mode, which mostly helped (though still sometimes it would take a split second or so to react, so not perfect), but then it goes from full brightness to dim and orange suddenly mid-evening, which is also not ideal. I love f.lux, but this issue definitely makes it more difficult to use which also makes it a bit harder to recommend to people.
