Automagic Forum

In Automagic exists an Action to set the brightness of display -> that's good
But it is not possible to check the state of brightness? (manual / automatic)

I want to set the brightness to manual or automatic in dependence of brightness sensor.
But changing the state from one to the other only if the status not already is set to the aim status

Hi,

You could use action Init Variable System Setting to read the value of System/screen_brightness_mode into a variable and act accordingly (0=Manual, 1=Automatic).
I'm hesitating to add a dedicated condition since this area was quite heavily modified by some manufacturers.

Thanks for fast answer (and for the great app)
I will try it with action Init Variable System Setting.
