Option to choose a display that should not use QRedshift #20

Open piratenfuerimmer opened 3 years ago

For the old redshift config file, there used to be the very simple option crtc=HDMI-1, which would turn off redshift on that display, e.g. to watch a movie. I cannot get it to work in the QRedshift config file, but a GUI option would of course be even better.

I could do that, but is too much work. Maybe i do that someday!

Hey Raphael,

Oh ok, what a bummer that it is a lot of work.

It used to work with this one line in the config file:

crtc=HDMI-1

The use case is that you may want to watch a movie or sports game on a separate monitor / projector which should not use it (as redshifts are irrelevant with projector screens), while you would want to use it on your main computer screen.

Thank you for considering,

Stefan :)

You can put that on ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/qredshift@quintao/assets/base.conf

Unfortunately, when I put it in, the night setting does not activate on my regular laptop screen, although it usually would be active at this hour.
