Always On Display URL? #39

Open Stickyhavr opened 1 year ago

Stickyhavr commented 1 year ago

Hello, Has anyone been able to figure out how to make a shortcut directly to the Always on Display settings?

I've tried: prefs:root=DISPLAY&path=ALWAYS_ON_DISPLAY and many different variations of the last bit, but I've not found the right URL to get directly to the Always on Display. It only ever takes me to Displays & Brightness, which is ok for now. But I thought one of you wizards might think of the right thing to try. Thanks!

I was actually looking into this exact setting a couple of days ago with a user on Reddit. Unfortunately, there seems to be no mention of Always On Display in the settings search manifests, which is the easiest place for me to obtain these URLs. Since I don't have a device that supports Always On Display, I asked that user to try these three URLs, with no success:

I'm not exactly sure where the Always On Display settings are defined, but they've got to be somewhere. I can't be sure there's a URL for them, though.

Thanks. I tried a whole bunch of other variations and never found one that worked. However, I did realize shortly after getting my new phone that the always on display turns off when you're in low power mode. So that's actually been an ever better solution (I have low power mode in my control center, so it's easy to activate when needed). Thanks for trying though! If I ever do find it, I'll report back, but it's not as pressing a need anymore.
