Veranderingen voor v4.76 - v4.84

  • This new version of f.lux has a grayscale mode and new key to turn it on: Windows + End.
  • You may already know about Tristan Harris and the Center for Humane Technology. They’ve explained how apps mess with our attention, so even the colors used on our screens are chosen to distract you. At first, we didn’t think this problem would be as bad on the desktop as it is on your phone.
  • The big surprise is how distracting the icons on the top and bottom of your screen are. These icon colors are the kind of thing you see in candy stores and on fire alarms, but we have to ignore them just to get work done. Without those colors, your computer looks more like a magazine that can help you focus on reading or thinking—it feels different, like a sheet of paper.
  • Also, turning your devices to grayscale does not remove blue light, so f.lux will continue to do what it does.
  • In this version, there’s also dusk-to-dawn support for people with Hue lights, so you can put Hue lights outside and use f.lux to turn them off during the day.
  • There are some bugfixes too.

Veranderingen voor v3.3 beta - v3.5 beta

  • The f.lux tray icon now comes back when it goes away.
  • f.lux’s Safe Mode now turns off all background polling for color changes. Why? People with an AMD Radeon have reported hiccups in games due to CCC.exe, which is trying to update its user interface every time we make an API call. With safe mode, we stop watching for changes other apps make to the color settings. When other apps disable our color settings, they won’t be automatically restored until the next transition.
  • If you turn on safe mode, you may have to click on the f.lux icon every once in a while to restore colors.

  • f.lux can control Philips lights, including the Hue and Color Kinetics intelliWhite. We run this scheme in our living room, but it might not be right for other rooms.
  • For laptops and other screens that dim their backlight, f.lux can get even warmer when your screen dims, whether manually or with automatic brightness.
