Checklist
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some monitors have DDC values inverted. For example, raising brightness or raising contrast, actually lowers one or all of them.
For example on this monitor "LEN-27ICB-A" which is a Lenovo panel, contrast works normally, but brightness is inverted.
I can provide a real life photo if there's any interest. In order to set max brightness and max contrast on this display, settings look like this:
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if in the advanced preferences, we could have a check-mark to invert values for contrast and another to invert values for brightness. That way users can't enable only one of them depending on how they are affected.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I also tried Lunar.app, another similar application. The controls for brightness are also inverted with Lunar on the same monitor.
Additional context
Currently on Big Sur 11.0 Beta (20A5384c) on a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015).
@JoniVR commented on GitHub (Nov 22, 2020):
I agree that this could be helpful for some people! PRs welcome!
@waydabber commented on GitHub (Sep 12, 2021):
Invert controls is now working in 3.1.0
See screenshots of the implementation in the v3.1.0 preliminary discussion.
@fleytman commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
Inverting the checkbox does not work for the macbook display.
@waydabber commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
Yes, the macbook display does not use DDC.
@fleytman commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
Is it possible to implement the scroll inverting function for the macbook monitor as well? It is supposed to depend more on the scroll setting than on the DDC.
@waydabber commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
You can swipe left or right on the trackpad to control the slider!
@fleytman commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
There is no problem with the trackpad. I would like to invert the scroll for the mouse.
@waydabber commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
I see. See this discussion about this issue: https://github.com/MonitorControl/MonitorControl/issues/885
@waydabber commented on GitHub (Mar 9, 2022):
I'll resurrect that issue and we can continue the discussion there.
