![]() ![]() It did come with Windows 8.1, but the support page provides drivers for Windows 7 (which I have installed). Is there some way I can adjust this lower limit in Windows, without using a screen overlay to "darken" the screen? It almost looks like Windows 7 has some arbitrary limit set somewhere that doesn't actually reflect my hardware's capabilities. I know my screen can go dimmer than Windows 7 allows it, because it works on other OSes. However, in Windows 7, the screen doesn't go nearly as dim it's maybe 25% brighter at its minimum compared to the other OSes. Select Next, then give the shortcut a name, such as Steam. In both Windows 10 and Ubuntu, I can get the screen very dim, so in a dark room I can barely see the keyboard. Right-click on the desktop and select New > Shortcut, then type cmd /c C:Program FilesSteamSteam.bat into the location bar. I have a tri-boot of Windows 10, Windows 7 and Ubuntu. I don't think I need them, since I know my hardware is capable of what I want. When I move the mouse cursor over: a search field, set of buttons, the white canvas, or grab certain nodes or lines in the work area, I get brightness changes either dimmer or back to normal, one or the other, always the same.I want to start out by saying I'd rather avoid third party programs like Dimmer, PangoBright, etc if possible. All do the same thing when moving the mouse cursor.įor instance, say I am using Adobe Illustrator. ![]() I am using 3 different "pointer" HIDs, a Quadstick FPS(integrated Win driver), a Peripad-504 track pad(integrated Win driver), and an MX logitec mouse(logitec driver). Judging by its repeatable and specific behavior, it is apparent that this is intentional, not a malfunction of hardware(mouse) or software(driver). I think this is some sort of power, eye, resource saving feature run by software code(suspecting Windows, Nvidia, maybe even ASUS monitor software, who knows) but I'm pretty sure its a "feature". Though, I have strong suspicion that this is not related to peripheral hardware or their drivers. Are you saying this IS being caused by a mouse/HID driver? Have you seen this before? LONDON It is tempting to view Boris Johnson’s sudden resignation from Britain’s Parliament on Friday evening as merely another twist in a. I cant find the origin of this "feature" because any time you search for anything related to screen brightness or contrast, all you get is Microsoft tech affiliates telling you to turn off the "auto brightness" feature in Windows settings. I am trying to get to the bottom of this. A monitor option (I've been through all the options my monitor offers, including ASUS' "ASCR", but that does not change the behavior either.).A graphics card "issue" (I have a flawlessly running RTX 3090 I've had for just over a year now, I have swapped in a 2070, does the same thing).A cable "issue" (using DP 1.4 and have used HDMI 2.0, and have changed many cables, and all inputs and outputs my hardware has to offer).A monitor "issue" (using a PG43UQ($1,500 model, and have multiple monitors hooked up, and all exhibit same behavior).Performance option related (all desktop performance options throughout windows are maxed globally and some per-application specific, like AI, Inkscape, and Gimp).Environmentally influenced by ambient light sensors(my monitor has this turned off).The Windows battery saver feature that is designed for laptops and tablets (I am using an HPDT, with win11, was happening in win10 as well).A bug or glitch from hardware/software failure(this is an apparent, intentional design feature).A driver issue (have installed fresh 472.xx Nvidia drivers.But, before you answer or input, please note, that this IS NOT: I'm looking for the definitive answer for why this happens. Others have complained of the same issue, with no real consensus on what is causing the behavior. This most notably happens when there is large area of white on screen, like when working in Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, Gimp, Excell, etc. Then, when you move the cursor just off of said thing, the screen darkens, move it back, the screen brightens again, or flickers. The PROBLEM- when the cursor hovers over certain things on screen like icons, buttons in creator applications, brighter or darker areas of the screen(can be just about anything), the screen will slightly, but noticeably brighten or darken, and sometimes flicker back and forth(like its confused about whether to dim or brighten) not a "glitch" like flicker that you might see with a failing GPU or faulty cable. ![]()
