Ever since I've been using an external monitor with my laptop, when I need to change the backlight brightness I have to press the monitor's buttons to navigate through its menu and adjust the brightness.
That is really a pain. It's too many button presses! When I was using my laptop's integrated monitor, that was as simple as presing the Fn
key plus a combination.
Probably some of you might think it is not possible to change that programmatically. I thought that too. But I've just found a control (a GUI control) in my video card configuration that does exactly that.
So, that proves it is possible to change this programmatically.
But I can't find any tool or utility that does that. All what I've found are tools that adjust gamma, brightness and contrast. But backlight brightness is a different thing.
Does any of you know how to adjust that damn thing programmatically in Windows?
