dimming screen for dark environments #35973

Open Omareltabie1 opened 5 days ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

the feature is to add a dimming filter on the screen, i mostly use the find my mouse feature (because it dims the screen and highlight the mouse) for this purpose but as soon as i move the mouse or click any button the overlay disappears so it would be cool to add it as a separate feature

Scenario when this would be used?

it would be so useful at night or not so bright environments as the lowest brightness of laptop screens isn't always dim enough, so it causes eye strains in dark environments

Supporting information

you might already have this feature partially done in the find my mouse one, so it won't be hard to implement
