I am still unable to get used to flux. It bothers me a lot, and I think my brain is trying to color correct or something; I swear it contributes to tension headaches. Could also just be getting them from too much screen time but the effect seems worse with flux on.
- PhasmaFelis 10y agoHave you tried setting it to a very mild color shift, and then perhaps working up slowly?
- vidyesh 10y agoYou start slow. I started from mild for few weeks then cranked it up. Slowly you get so used to it that the yellow tint doesn't bother you. And for me I now have a habit that as soon as I start Photoshop or Illustrator I turn flux off.
- ggsp 10y agoYou can also disable f.lux for specific apps, just click on the menu icon when the app is open, and you'll find the option under Disable > for Photoshop.
- firloop 10y agoI used to do that for a few programs but it was always so jarring seeing the transition happen back and forth when I would tab out of Photoshop to the Finder or another app. Now I just disable for an hour if I'm doing color sensitive work at night.
- kalleboo 10y agoI end up just lowering the strength when I'm using certain apps - I wish that was an option rather than completely disabling.
- coldtea 10y agoYou're just overthinking it. The key is to forget about it. And perhaps you've set it to some extreme setting.
- Noseshine 10y agoHow "orange" it gets depends on the color temperature you set. f.lux allows a very wide range of final-spectrum settings, from almost-no-effect to small-medieval-candle-light.
