We have a few disparate pages on this. We should consider consolidating
or rethinking how we cross-link them.
If it is possible to set the brightness of your screen, it will dim when
the computer is idle in order to save power. When you start using the
computer again, the screen will brighten.
To stop the screen from dimming itself:
Open the Activities
overview and start typing Settings.
Click on Settings.
Click Power in the sidebar to open the panel.
Switch Dim screen when inactive to OFF in the
Power Saving section.
