The issue I was describing above was about the "Power Management" KCM, not the interactive brightness controls in the panel widget / keyboard binding. This is definitely not bug 482713. I'll open a new ticket about this. (In reply to Jakob Petsovits from comment #10) > How about a middle ground?

So while on Low Battery, if you change your brightness, you'd go > from 0% to [currently configured actual brightness]. I think that's really not a good UX - for one thing, it defeats (a supposed) UI that says "when on low battery limit brightness to [30%]" - if the the brightness was set to 75%, then you get into low battery, it is clamped to 30% of that (0.225%) and you can then increase brightness back to a factor of 1 over the original brightness - 75%, its much higher than 30%. I may have misunderstood what you meant by the above quoted comment, but on the face of it that seems problematic. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
