--- Comment #6 from Jakob Petsovits <jpe...@petsovits.com> ---
Plasma versions prior to 6.2 had technical limitations that prevented setting
the brightness of both internal and external displays together. This issue has
not been addressed so far, but with the recent introduction of per-display
brightness controls, we need to rethink dimming in a multi-monitor environment.
I'm leaning towards dimming all the screens. The energy angle certainly speaks
for it, and it also looks more consistent to the user. Unlike the "Change
screen brightness" setting, which uses a percentage of the maximum brightness,
dimming uses a percentage of the current brightness of each monitor - so that's
less awkward if applied across multiple screens with different brightness
ranges.
The current infrastructure is still limited in some ways that will omit the
correct brightness being restored after wake-up, reboots and reconnecting. This
would still speak for limiting the impact to just the single internal screen,
which at least can't be unplugged. Hopefully we can resolve these limitations
before too long, and focus entirely on the desired user experience.
