Night Light time schedule is 1 hour off #174

System Settings: Displays: Night Light: Schedule: Manual.

I enter my time settings, and Night Light turns on one hour earlier. If I had to guess I'd say this is daylight savings related, and that after Daylight Savings goes off the time settings will be accurate.

@Bruce-McL Are you using the version of Switchboard Plug Display come with elementary OS Juno by default, or did you build and install the latest master branch?

Also, I believe Night Light begins to come on one hour early, so that it is fully transitioned in time for the schedule. The indicator appears then so you can toggle it back off if you'd like to.

I am using what came with elementary OS Juno, no custom built parts.

That is quite a long transition time! On macOS and iOS I have the time set manually, and the transition time is about two minutes. I'm OK with the way I have elementary OS set up now. I guess I could play around with the settings in elementary OS to learn more about the transition time.

@Bruce-McL the actual Night Light functionality is provided by GNOME Settings Daemon. A shorter (or configurable) transition time would need to be implemented there.
