Description

A lite and easy-to-use addon that adjusts the screen color to match the environment!

Color Temperature (Change Lux) extension protects your eyes by adding a warm color to websites (i.e. at night time or when the ambient is dark). Using this addon you can avoid excessive blue light and also it makes you sleep much better by protecting you from the blue glow of your computer screen.

Some features:
1. Easily change the color temperature of your screen from cool to warm colors (fitted for day or night time).
2. Toolbar panel UI has the required tools to adjust the color temperature.
3. There is also an ON|OFF switch to easily switch the addon ON or OFF.
4. This addon applies color temperature to all websites, but you can add the desired site(s) to a whitelist table to exclude them from color changing.
5. There are also some keyboard shortcuts to enhance adding websites to the whitelist table.
6. Options page for this addon has several settings to adjust.

Works, but with some annoying bugs that require extra setup to circumvent. It seems like this extension filters over individual web elements rather than a whole screen at once, which leads to a visibility bug where some elements lose the filter when the mouse enters/leaves the element zone. Enabling hardware acceleration fixes this issue, but causes a major issue when watching streamed videos on YouTube or Twitch. Video streams will intermittently pause for an entire second. I recommend enabling hardware acceleration and whitelisting all video streaming sites if you want to use this extension.

Quite useful for what I wanted. I'm looking for an extension to view each colour channel separately and this extension does this but with a minor irritation... Why does setting the colour sliders to zero flip their value to 255, and setting the opacity slider to zero flip its value to 30%? This just means that if I want to set a colour to minimum I have to avoid setting it to zero. I'll keep it installed until I find something better for my purposes.
