Description of the new feature / enhancement

I often need to turn off my laptop display while software is running in the background, e.g. when streaming video or audio.

A PowerToy could come in handy for this.

Some possible settings:

  • Turn off display when...
    • Mouse pointer is on desktop [top right corner | top left corner].
    • Keyboard shortcut [Ctrl + Shift + ^].
  • Turn display on when...
    • Mouse moves [yes, no].
    • Press any key [yes, no].
  • Select display:
    • Primary display only [option, default on].
    • All displays [option]
    • Only the display on which the "Turn off display" action was triggered [option].
  • Ask which display to turn off? [No, Yes]

Scenario when this would be used?

  • To save battery time on a laptop while working with external monitors.
  • While streaming content on another display
  • In combination with a sleep time
