Hi guys and girls,

So I upgraded to the GM of Sierra, and have noticed that F.lux isn't working correctly, I have since disabled it, but now I seem to have a permanent dock stuck in dark mode. Even after restarting the mac and a command line of killall Dock isn't putting it back to light mode. Any ideas how I can get a light dock again?

2015 15" Macbook Pro Retina btw.

Thanks

am also upgraded to GM of Sierra and have been using F.lux from the beginning of the sierra beta's - no issues. Have you checked the version for the most recent update? - version I have is 37.7

I did notice that when I travel the "location" does not update automatically and I have to refresh the location in f.lux preferences to get the light times correct.

I am running 37.7 as well, seem to have lost the auto-dark theme colour effect under colour effects. This is what has caused it.

as mikzn said, above. using it thru all the betas, and the GM as well.

This is odd, maybe I'm just unlucky and glitches out!

F.lux also not working well on my 10.12 GM, the schedule is wrong. One profile always at night mode, the other one always at day mode.

But I can disable it without any issue.
