https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448459 --- Comment #12 from Fieldservice4 --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #11) > Fieldservice4, can you clarify whether you *do* or *do not* want logarithmic > brightness changes? Right now we do linear changes. Do want logarithmic. The author is correct. Linear changes does not work well with laptops with high brightness display (linked below), since the eye is sensitive to changes in low light environments but not high lights environment. So for an example, the 1400 nits display in the link below, a 10% change in brightness would be a 140 nits change. To illustrate this, it means 280 nits at only 20% brightness, which is almost equal to the maximum brightness of a normal consumer/business laptop (350 nits). The issue is that it becomes difficult to find a comfortable setting working in a low light environment, or if you have the laptop mounted in the vehicle (e.g. law enforcement) and driving in night time, it is easily either too dark or too bright with a linear setting with these kind of laptops. So it should be logarithmic. https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-laptops-and-notebooks/sf/rugged-laptops -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448459 Fieldservice4 changed: What|Removed |Added Status|ASSIGNED|CONFIRMED CC||i...@engiryd.com --- Comment #10 from Fieldservice4 --- Thanks. This is indeed an issue. A field service laptop (for police / military / emergency service / construction etc.) uses displays with 1000 - 1400 nits. Due to their multiple times brighter displays compared to ordinary laptops, the lowest jumps (e.g. 5% to 10%) has tremendous impact on the brightness, often making it impossible to adjust to a comfortable brightness level for indoor use. Ordinary business and consumer laptops are also currently increasing their display brightness, and will therefore face the same issue, making this fix even more important. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I've been using the patch I posted above since I posted it, but got bogged down trying to set up a proper KDE build so that I could submit a complete contribution. Then I got too busy with other things. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
