Hi,
I notice that in the morning I need high brightness on the monitor (HP 22w), less over afternoon and even less during the evening. Now, of course, adjusting this via the buttons on the back of the monitor every time (like 3 times in the day) is inconvenient, as you can imagine. I'm just wondering if this could be somehow automated or something, maybe to adjust brightness automatically to pre-set levels at three different times in the day or so ?
Also, I have noticed, despite currently with my set up projecting only on the monitor (and nothing on my laptop screen), the monitor does NOT change brightness when clicking on the up/down brightness buttons on my laptop keyboard. I do see the slider bar (on top-left of the screen, Windows 10) come down/up by pressing the keyboard down/up buttons for brightness, but strangely there's no actual change there is to the monitor's brightness...
Thanks 🙂

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:
Use the on-screen display (OSD) menu to adjust the monitor screen image based on your preferences. You can access and make adjustments in the OSD menu using the buttons on the monitor’s bezel.
To access the OSD menu and make adjustments, do the following:
- 1. If the monitor is not already on, press the power button to turn on the monitor.
- 2. Press the Menu button to open the OSD.
- 3. Use the menu options to navigate, select, and adjust the menu choices. The options are variable depending on the menu or sub-menu that is active.
The following table lists the menu selections in the OSD menu.
- Main Menu
