Trying to get some work done and would like to change the timing on the LCD dimming. The dimming is annoying at the moment. Yes, I know it's benefits....just want to stop it for now and not have to keep my fingers on the track pad.

Thanks

Go under Energy Saver and click on "Options" You can turn the dimming on and off but not set the time as far as I know. I think the time is based on the setting for the screen switching off. I think I noticed that it dimmed quicker if the setting for the screen swithing off is lower as well.
