I find the instant fade jarring as well. Since this was requested 3 years ago, any chance it has moved higher up on the to-do list? ]]> RE: Request - Monitor Fading to gradually dim monitor over x seconds https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/request-monitor-fading-to-gradually-dim-monitor-over-x-seconds/?ID=3fc5caf8-d1ef-4f4c-9bb1-154303a8e364#4 Mon, 20 Apr 2020 20:30:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/request-monitor-fading-to-gradually-dim-monitor-over-x-seconds/?ID=3fc5caf8-d1ef-4f4c-9bb1-154303a8e364#4 DisplayFusion Will do, thanks! ]]> RE: Request - Monitor Fading to gradually dim monitor over x seconds https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/request-monitor-fading-to-gradually-dim-monitor-over-x-seconds/?ID=3fc5caf8-d1ef-4f4c-9bb1-154303a8e364#3 Mon, 20 Apr 2020 15:58:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/request-monitor-fading-to-gradually-dim-monitor-over-x-seconds/?ID=3fc5caf8-d1ef-4f4c-9bb1-154303a8e364#3 DisplayFusion Related, but different: I'd vote/request for a quick/instant "wake up from fade" when mouse is moved to a currently faded monitor (to save a click).

I see from another thread that's on the list, but add my up-vote. :-) ]]> RE: Request - Monitor Fading to gradually dim monitor over x seconds https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/request-monitor-fading-to-gradually-dim-monitor-over-x-seconds/?ID=3fc5caf8-d1ef-4f4c-9bb1-154303a8e364#2 Sat, 30 Jun 2018 16:03:35 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/request-monitor-fading-to-gradually-dim-monitor-over-x-seconds/?ID=3fc5caf8-d1ef-4f4c-9bb1-154303a8e364#2 DisplayFusion Both of these are currently on our feature request list, so I've added your vote to them :)

I really like the idea of the monitor fading feature but find the instant dim to be too jarring, even at only 10%.

It would be much nicer if it gradually dimmed the display over some time period (customisable) eg. 1% per second.

Also I'd like to delay any dimming for a time period eg. 15 seconds so when I'm working across both monitors frequently, I might not need to disable this feature.

Thanks ]]>
