[Harmony] Bedside light intensity #4857

Open demoive opened 1 month ago

demoive commented 1 month ago

🚀 Feature request

📝 Description

I keep Frontlight intensity to a minimum for when I need to see the screen at night. But when I use the Bedside Lamp (v1.8.0) shortcut, I need it on maximum intensity to light my environment, read a book, etc.

I see these functionalities serving two different (and opposite) purposes:

  1. Frontlight intensity (setting): Helps users see the screen – eyes are directly looking at the screen, especially in situations where eyes are acclimating to the dark.
  2. Bedside Lamp (shortcut): Helps users light up a dark environment – eyes are explicitly not looking at the screen.

📝 Describe the solution you'd like

Make the Beside Light always operates in max light intensity.

📝 Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternatively, add a separate intensity option to the Frontlight setting (e.g. Bedside lamp intensity) which defaults to max intensity.

Hi @demoive, I've passed your idea to the team and we'll discuss its feasibility. I'll come back to you as soon as I have more information. Thanks for your suggestion!

Hi @demoive, I'm returning to you with great news - the team has decided to implement this feature! It will be released in one of the next OS updates, I'll keep you informed. I've already implemented a proof-of-concept if you'd like to look at the code :wink:

Once again thanks for your suggestion!
