  <title>Set screen brightness</title>

  <p>Depending on your hardware, you can change the brightness of your screen to
  save power or to make the screen more readable in bright light.</p>

  <p>To change the brightness of your screen, click the
  <gui xref="shell-introduction#systemmenu">system menu</gui> on the right side
  of the top bar and adjust the screen brightness slider to the value you want
  to use. The change should take effect immediately.</p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>Many laptop keyboards have special keys to adjust the brightness. These
    often have a picture that looks like the sun. Hold down the <key>Fn</key>
    key to use these keys.</p>
  </note>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>If your computer features an integrated light sensor, the screen
    brightness will automatically be adjusted for you. For more information, see
  <link xref="power-autobrightness"/>.</p>
  </note>

  <p>If it is possible to set the brightness of your screen, you can also have
  the screen dim automatically to save power. For more information, see
  <link xref="power-whydim"/>.</p>
