  1. I love this feature.
    It is actually kinda weird how I installed flux just a few days ago and now they implement this feature.

    1. I have not tried.
      I am sure it is possible. The question is will it be applied instantly? I have no idea yet.

  2. I’m confused, I have a Windows 10 Surface Book that is kept up to date, but I don’t see this option in my display settings or action center pane? How come I don’t have it? :(

    1. Hello Lisa.
      You don’t have this option because it is available in Windows 10 Creators Update.
      Windows 10 Creators Update is the next version of Windows 10. It will released in April 2017.
      Currently, Windows 10 Creators Update is available for Windows Insiders.

  3. I enabled this feature ( I am an insider) and now I cant disable it. The option is greyed out and I can’t adjust any of the settings. Anybody else have this issue?
