Have you considered using Redshift manually? Here’s what I do:
First, uninstall redshift-gtk and just install redshift.
Next, according to redshift -h
The neutral temperature is 6500K. Using this value will not change the color
temperature ofthe display. Setting the color temperature toavalue higher
than this results in more blue light, and setting alowervalue will resultin
more red light.
Default values:
Daytime temperature: 6500K
Night temperature: 4500K
In my case, I create custom menu items (Mint’s menu editor) and link them to those scripts so I can run them from the main application menu/ add them to my dock.

Default values: Daytime temperature: 6500K Night temperature: 4500KSo, create two scripts, for example “Redshift-On.sh” and “Redshift-Off.sh”. In the former copy and paste:
#!/bin/sh redshift -P -O 4500Kand in the latter copy and paste:
#!/bin/sh redshift -P -O 6500KIn my case, I create custom menu items (Mint’s menu editor) and link them to those scripts so I can run them from the main application menu/ add them to my dock.
