I'm trying to use "sub-zero" dimming with a 2021 mbp but can't figure out how to use it.
EDIT: for anyone confused, it's because XDR and the sub-zero dimming only works in the drop down from the menu bar but NOT in the main windows of the app.. Very confusing.
- alin23 5y agoMake sure the Allow brightness to reach zero is unchecked: https://app.lunar.fyi/display/builtin/controls https://app.lunar.fyi/display/builtin/controls Screenshot: https://cln.sh/O9MSDd https://cln.sh/O9MSDd Then just lower the brightness to 0, either with the slider or the brightness keys. Another red slider will appear for the sub-zero brightness and brightness keys will control that slider now. EDIT: I saw your edit now. I'm trying not to add more elements in the Preferences window as it's already too complex. The Preferences window is supposed to only be used when you have to change some more persistent settings. Sub-zero dimming is easier to use with the brightness keys.
- nicolas_t 5y agoThat makes sense. I think the reason I was confused is that when you first open the app, it shows the preference windows, so I tried to set the brightness below 0 in that window. It didn't work, so I checked Allow brightness to reach zero. I then tried the keys and it didn't work due to me having checked that option. I then unchecked it while trying to figure it out... And eventually saw the screenshot on your site where the user is interacting with the icon in the menu bar) which is how I got it working.
