### While using `transition_until_sleep: true`

### Custom brightness ramps using `brightness_mode` with `"linear"` and `"tanh"`
<details>
<summary>Enhance your control over brightness transitions during sunrise and sunset with <code>brightness_mode</code> (click here to learn more 🧠).</summary>
With Adaptive Lighting, you can set a `brightness_mode` to specify how the brightness changes during sunrise and sunset. The `brightness_mode` can be set to `"default"` ([as illustrated in other graphs above](#high_brightness-brightness)), `"linear"`, or `"tanh"`. If you choose to deviate from the `"default"` mode, you can adjust `brightness_mode_time_dark` and `brightness_mode_time_light` to further customize the lighting transitions.
When `brightness_mode` is set to `"linear"`:
- During **_sunset_**, the brightness begins to gradually decrease from `max_brightness` starting at `time=sunset_time - brightness_mode_time_light`, until it reaches `min_brightness` at `time=sunset_time + brightness_mode_time_dark`.
- During **_sunrise_**, the brightness begins to gradually increase from `min_brightness` starting at `time=sunrise_time - brightness_mode_time_dark`, until it reaches `max_brightness` at `time=sunrise_time + brightness_mode_time_light`.
When `brightness_mode` is set to `"tanh"`, it uses the smooth transition of a [hyperbolic tangent function](https://mathworld.wolfram.com/HyperbolicTangent.html):
- During **_sunset_**, the brightness starts to decrease from 95% of `max_brightness` starting at `time=sunset_time - brightness_mode_time_light`, until it reaches 5% of `min_brightness` at `time=sunset_time + brightness_mode_time_dark`.
- During **_sunrise_**, the brightness starts to increase from 5% of `min_brightness` starting at `time=sunrise_time - brightness_mode_time_dark`, until it reaches 95% of `max_brightness` at `time=sunrise_time + brightness_mode_time_light`.
</details>
Notice the values of `brightness_mode_time_light` and `brightness_mode_time_dark` in the text box.
