Hey!

I just want to say firstly, this is a great app.

So the issue I'm having is that when I'm on a full screen app on my external monitor and I change brightness, it changes the brightness of my internal display. In order for it to recognize that the focus is on the monitor I need to switch to a different desktop on the monitor that doesn't contain a fullscreen app.

Thank you for listening!

Can you test this on the new v2.0.0? I think it should work now?

Just noticed this is probably a duplicate of #30, so will continue tracking in there.

@oakif I haven't had the time to look into this yet and there's some higher priority stuff I want to get done first, but anyone is free to take a look at it 🙂
