DarkAdapted modifies your screen gamma settings so that you may, for example, preserve your dark adaptation while using your computer.
With DarkAdapted you can also export and import gamma presets to and from disk files.
Here are some key features of "DarkAdapted":
· DarkAdapted is free of charge (but remains copyrighted by Stephen E. Hutson).
· Customizable gamma presets. Use predefined settings, create your own, and manipulate your presets with ease.
· High-resolution sliders allow you to adjust red, green, and blue video components individually and in real time.
· Small screen mode hides advanced controls, minimizing the use of valuable screen real estate. The Main Window may also be hidden entirely.
· Select a preset by typing the first few letters of its name.
· Export and import gamma presets to and from disk files. Sample presets files are included with the download.
· Full AppleScript support (on Mac OS), including a sample AppleScript with the Mac OS download.
· "Gama Toggle" keys offer a quick return to full brightness. Modifier keys are full assignable.
· Switching to gamma presets is performed via smooth fades, never abrupt shifts in screen color or brightness.
· Gamma fade duration is user-configurable (from instantaneous to two seconds), and slider controls may be set to update in real time during the fade.
· Control console "remembers" its position on your screen.
· Saved gamma preset is restored when DarkAdapted is launched, and reset when DarkAdapted quits.
· Manual refresh preference can override gamma adjustments made by screen savers or other software.
· Automatic or manual checking for updates via the Internet.
· Useful display features show gamma changes` effects on selected text, as well as text on different backgrounds.
· Useful numeric and graphical readouts of gamma values.
· Includes the same powerful night vision technology as ScopeDriver, a full featured telescope control program.
· And many other time savers and productivity enhancers.
Requirements:
· At least 25 MB available hard disk space.
· Compatible monitor and video card.
Limitations:
· You can use Pro`s options for 10 minutes.
