The screen now turns off when you close the lid
With Mac mini Mode on, macOS never sleeps, so if display sleep is set to Never (remote desktop apps often do this) the screen stayed lit inside the closed lid.
- Closing the lid now switches off the built-in display's backlight within about a second, and opening it restores the previous brightness.
- Only the backlight changes. The Mac does not lock, and video calls, remote desktop and other running apps are not interrupted.
- An external display is never touched.
- Turn it off any time with Turn Off Screen When Lid Is Closed in the menu.
If the screen is ever still dark after you open the lid, press the brightness-up key (F2), or run macminimode screen-on over a remote connection.
合盖后屏幕会自动熄灭
Mac mini 模式下系统不睡眠,如果显示器睡眠被设成「永不」(远程桌面软件常这么做),合盖后屏幕会一直亮着。
- 现在合上盖子约一秒内关掉内建屏幕的背光,开盖恢复原来的亮度。
- 只关背光:不会锁屏,也不会打断视频通话、远程桌面和其他正在运行的应用。
- 接着外接显示器时不会动它。
- 菜单里的「合盖时熄灭屏幕」可以随时关闭。
万一开盖后屏幕还是黑的,按键盘上的亮度增加键(F2)即可;远程连着的话也可以运行 macminimode screen-on。
