Bug Description

It would be very helpful if one could adjust the colour temperature on the fly. I suppose that from the System Tray icon one might be able to open a dialoge to change the temperature, or if global keyboard shortcuts could be set that would be great too.

Note that this feature request ties in nicely with another feature request to see the temperature:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/596550

In fact, in that RFE the OP also mentions the desire to adjust temperature on the fly.

Thanks.

On a related note, being able to set fixed target times rather than fancily geolocated, and being able to kick off a transition to [for example] 'nighttime' over N minutes/hours would be very useful for people forced to live by the clock or wanting to keep normal settings until intentionally trying to go to bed in N minutes.

[The first case would be very nice to be able to 'leave everything alone' most of the day but still have an automatic reminder that it's past midnight, say.]

Apologies if I already said this somewhere - I think I might've kept it to myself thinking "I should try to write a patch someday", but it just came to mind again now that I've set up a desk lamp with a manually-triggered 30 minute 'sunset' timer.
