Always! (Use the script before calibration to set an EXACT brightness value!). So, if decrease/increase brightness, as soon as I get back to LR, brightness is reset to 80%. Custom: Specify the times you want Night Shift to turn on and off. Off: Prevent Night Shift from turning on automatically. (You may need to scroll down.) Click the Night Shift button on the right, click the Schedule pop-up menu, then choose an option. So, in Keyboard Maestro I create a "macro" that says: "When Lightroom activates, execute this AppleScript". On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Displays in the sidebar. Many ways to do that, but I use Keyboard Maestro for that. So, I just need to launch this script when I start Lightroom/Photoshop/.

Set value of slider 1 of group 2 of tab group 1 of window 1 of process "System Preferences" to 0.8 Reveal anchor "displaysDisplayTab" of pane id "" I have automatic brightness turned off (still didn't manage to access that one via script, I want to disable automatic brightness when launching Lightroom and enable it when closing it). So, I want 80% brightness when I start Lightroom/Photoshop/. Didn't like it too much.īut now I use a script that allows me to set the precise brightness (which should be the one you used while calibrating). Initially, I created a script that replicated the keys pressed to increase brightness (press more brightness for 20 times, then 2 down). So, I can work with warmer colors in my text editor and as soon as I switch to Lightroom, the screen returns to the "normal" (=calibrated) state.īrightness: this was messier. Shifty allows you to set Night Shift to "Disable for Lightroom/Photoshop/.". There's an app for that and even free: I am assisting the developer with localization to "pay" for it. If I forget to turn Night Shift off, I could get into trouble. But: this messes with color reproduction.

I found it's better to work with adjusted temperature when working for hours (typing.). Click back to return to System Preferences. Night Shift: I really like Night Shift, which changes the color temperature (warmer at night). Click the Apple logo in the Menu bar then click System Preferences.

Full brightess was not what I used during calibration, but I adjusted brightess to the measurements of the software/device.

Calibration was done with a certain brightness, so I am "off" when I adjust the screen brightess. adjusted brightness: I often decrease/increase brightness. Of course, I want consistent results and there are 2 "enemies": Most of the time, I use an externam monitor, but somethimes I like to lean back and just work with the laptop. Of course, the monitor is calibrated/profiled.
