Adjustable video Gamma via desktop shortcuts?

[CamaroLT]

Don't get me wrong, I love my nVidia, but one thing that the AMD Catalyst drivers have over my GTX970 is that the Catalyst allows for me to have multiple profiles of Gamma+RGB levels. When working nights, I click a shortcut and all 4 monitors dim. When working days, I click another shortcut and the displays all go bright. The nVidia drivers do allow for gamma adjustment, of course, but, doesn't seem to have an export function so that I can click and the monitors follow suit to whatever profile I want.

I've not been able to find an application that replicates this. I've found programs that do a one-time adjustment, with all the fancy graphs and "Can you see me now?" grey text, but, I'm not overly concerned whether I can or not, just that I want the display dimmed for whatever reason.

Does anyone know how of a program or application, or how I can link into Win7 to control the gamma scheme?

Not the answer you are looking for, but look up f.lux

Thanks. I've installed it and will give it a try.

I'm also going to see if I can hunt up some code examples that'll let me directly control the gamma via gdi32.dll or something like that. I just need to figure out how to convert C# to Pascal and get FPC to do what I want. :]

After a couple of days, I was about to uninstall this app as I found the color changing to be more annoying than anything. But then I found a keyboard combo that does the gamma change without color change. So I configured the software to keep things at "sunlight" levels all the time, and when I want to adjust the gamma, a few presses of ALT-PGUP/DN and I'm golden. Good enough for me, thanks.
