Description Quentin Denis 2010-01-02 16:50:03 UTC

Version:           4.3.4 (using KDE 4.3.4)
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

It would be very useful to have a shortcut to "xset dpms force off" in the PowerDevil "Battery" plasmoid menu. Lenovo does have this in its battery applet and I use it quite often to quickly access this feature to save energy.


kind regards, Quentin

I like this feature, but it does not seem to belong to something that shows battery status.

It also controls the brightness of the screen…

Hello!

This feature request was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this feature request is already implemented in Plasma 5, or is no longer applicable.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this feature request. If the requested feature is still desired but not implemented in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
