It would be more convenient to switch by clicking on the system tray icon.

What is "common" brightness and contast?

It's the ability to customize a few gears so that you don't overpull easily

image Similar to volume2's table mode, you can customize the actual value of each step of the desired slider.

image Or create a number of new profiles just like the system power mode, power mode can't adjust the contrast, Monitorian can.

I had no choice but to change from ClickMonitorDDC to Monitorian before I switched to Win11, because the software stopped being maintained and often had compatibility issues. Quite a powerful program, it's a bit of a shame that it's been discontinued. Mouse operation has a lot of very convenient habits hard to let go. I hope the software can learn from one or two.

I don't still understand what this table means. Could you describe what kind of behavior are you expecting this app to do?

image Simply add some gears to the slider that can be adjusted between gears. Now it's easy to overdrag this way with a smooth drag. For example, brightness 55 contrast 45 in daytime mode, brightness 46 contrast 42 in nighttime mode. Now the "Adjustment range" is only valid for brightness, not for contrast.

What do you mean by "gears"? And how do they relate to "overdrag" "with a smooth drag"? What do you intend to show by the examples?

Sorry, English sucks." gears" means scale or level, the slider is hard to adjust precisely, and the mouse wheel adjusts in multiples of 5, so it's hard to adjust it to a value like 52 or 47. Probably the easiest and simplest way to achieve this is to apply the "Adjustment Range" to the contrast adjustment as well.

Thank you for explanation. I read though your comments but I could not understand exactly what you are expecting. So I am sorry but I close this issue.
