QRedshift is a really great applet! Thank you so much for it! Unfortunately it works only on one monitor for me. When I enter e.g. "redshift -O 3500 -b 0.8" in the normal command-line, both monitors are redshifted and darker. But with the applet only one. I'm using Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon with two 4K-monitors from LG. Connected by Displayport-Cables. My graphics-card is Intel UHD Graphics 630. I really hope, you can fix that. Thank you!

Try changing the "Adjustment Method" in the configurations menu. I had a similar problem, and setting the adjustment method to vidmode fixed it for me.

Itś working great on Manjaro. The UI is really cool too. Props.

It's great applet! Really helps during work at evening and night. Unfortunately I'm unable to launch applet since last it's update (I guess from 1.4 to 1.5) - only got message "Something went wrong while loading, report issue to its developer". I'm using Linux Mint 19.3 with Cinnamon 4.4.8.

I tested here, with 4.4.8 and is all working fine. Try delete the config files.

Fabulous applet! A must have! Thank you, Raphael, for our eyes.

It's a must have app! Especially if you want to use the laptop in bed with low lighting. Unfortunatelly it stopped working after mint upgrade to 19.3 Cinnamon 4.4.5

Raphael Quintão-3 months ago

Thanks ! What happens in that version?

aroumeliotis-3 months ago

It's apparently just a version compatibility issue. I just edited the json with the metadata to include cinnamon 4.4. The applet utility still has a notification saying that this app "contains function calls that could potentially cause cinnamon to crash", but runs fine for now.

Raphael Quintão-3 months ago

Good to know! That message is normal.

Correction. Does not work in Cinnamon 4.2.4

Raphael Quintão-3 months ago

Works normal on my 4.2.4 with Debian.

Raphael Quintão-3 months ago

What happens in that version?

Work great and, yes, the icon it's a lot bigger than the icons of other applets.

N1vBruno-6 months ago

This applet is awesome, thanks. I'd just like to request, if possible, to implement scaling to the icon. It's a lot bigger than the icons of other applets and I didn't found a way to resize it (the options in panel settings resize the other applets but not QRedshift).

Raphael Quintão-3 months ago

Fixed on version 1.4.
