Yes, should.
It use to work fine … but it seems that after SU4 or SU5, even if the file was as you wanted it when MSFS started, the EyeAdaptation was still set to 1 within MSFS.
There has been enough talk about it, that there should have been a UI control added to control it, and it should retain its value between sessions.
There are some setting on the World Map that can be changed in the UI, but are never written back, so they are always OFF, each time the sim is run ( Unless you Edit the source file in Official !!! )
A lot of UI detail than hopefully be be addressed and fixed – One day.
