The key comination to toggle HDR in Windows 11 is Alt+Win+B. Is there a way to have HDR toggle on or off when switching profiles in DisplayFusion automatically?

Hi Joey,

This isn't something we currently support, but we do have this open as a feature request. I've added your vote to it, so we'll be sure to let you know if we have any news on it in the future.

Thanks!

Hi, the monitor profiles feature works wonderfully, unless you have HDR monitors. When I enable the HDR monitor with DF, it often says "invalid format" on it (not "no signal"). As if the monitor expects SDR but receives HDR or vice versa, or the "HDR config" of another monitor. There's no problem when I manually adjust my monitor config in Windows display settings, it's like DF is missing something related to HDR on screen config change. I really hope the HDR toggle and color profiles get added to monitor profiles, this is the feature I (used to) use the most and the reason why I got this program, when life was simple in SDR :) Thanks for everything you do

This would be a great feature and i'm a bit surprised it is not implemented.

I am the founder of Blur Busters and TestUFO, and with the 240Hz HDR OLEDs becoming mainstream non-gaming uses too (Consumer desktop OLED's don't come in less than 240Hz), I am launching TestUFO 2.0 with HDR soon.

I would like to see DisplayFusion finally add hotkey control of HDR on/off.

In fact, I am willing to negotiate a paid feature addition -- if you would prefer money to get this feature added by CES 2024.

I hardly use this software any longer. Too glitchy, which is sad. For instance start menu still does not work right on win 11 jumping all over the place when using multi taskbar set up. Application hooks trigger anticheat in games. Unable to retain 4.2.2 chroma on secondary displays when switching to primary displays. No HDR turn on/off function support. Remote app drops the PC, need to reconnect regulary. When killing app at the the taskbar it still continues to run in task manager. The list goes on,and on, and on. I paid 25$ for this a year or so ago and regret the purchase.

@Mark Rejhon: Sent you an email to get some more details on what you're looking for.

@Inna: We are working on fixing some of those, but some are unfixable due to limitations in Windows :(

+1 for this feature. Especially since monitor duplicating does not support HDR in Win10. How far has this come?

This seem doable with a trigger with the "Monitor Profile Changed" event and a custom function.

The Turning on/off hdr can be done with some external utility like this one: https://github.com/res2k/HDRTray/releases.

You might need to add a delay in the trigger with the "Wait" action before the "Run Function" action .

Here is an example with that third party utility:

Code

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.IO;

public static class DisplayFusionFunction
{
    public static void Run(IntPtr windowHandle)
    {
        string[] hdrOnProfiles = { "HDR Gaming", "HDR Movie", "HDR Work" };
        string[] hdrOffProfiles = { "Standard", "Night Mode", "Reading" };

        string hdrCmdPath = @"C:\Path\To\HDRCmd.exe";

        string currentProfile = BFS.DisplayFusion.GetCurrentMonitorProfile();

        if (!File.Exists(hdrCmdPath))
        {
            BFS.Dialog.ShowMessageError("HDRCmd utility not found at: " + hdrCmdPath);
            return;
        }

        bool shouldTurnOnHDR = Array.Exists(hdrOnProfiles, profile => profile.Equals(currentProfile, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase));
        bool shouldTurnOffHDR = Array.Exists(hdrOffProfiles, profile => profile.Equals(currentProfile, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase));

        if (shouldTurnOnHDR)
        {
            ExecuteHDRCommand("on");
        }
        else if (shouldTurnOffHDR)
        {
            ExecuteHDRCommand("off");
        }
        else
        {
            BFS.Dialog.ShowMessageInfo("Current profile '" + currentProfile + "' is not configured for HDR changes.");
        }
    }

    private static void ExecuteHDRCommand(string command)
    {
        string hdrCmdPath = @"C:\Path\To\HDRCmd.exe";
        
        try
        {
            Process.Start(hdrCmdPath, command);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            BFS.Dialog.ShowMessageError("Error executing HDRCmd: " + ex.Message);
        }
    }
}


You will need to update hdrCmdPath to the location of HDRCmd and put the name of your monitor profiles in hdrOnProfiles and hdrOffProfiles.
