I know, I did mention the caffeine applet in my post. Problem is caffeine is 3rd party and hasn't seen any development in 2 years... So its not a good solution. We need an officially supported out of the box solution for this. On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 1:34 PM, Chow Loong Jin wrote: > On 19/02/20

Unity really needs an easy inbuilt "presention mode" where you could either hit a key combination or use an inbuilt indicator to completely indicate screensaver/screen blanking/suspend. There are many use cases for this, such as watching videos. Of course some applications are smart enough to do t
