laptop screens

[B4 Sloth]

Anyone know where to adjust the contrast and brightness etc so i can see the screen whilst i sit out here in the garden on this bright sunny day 'supervising' the kids.

What make of laptop etc? Normally done via the fn key with what ever key that has a brightness symbol on it.

TOSHIBA Have pressed the FN key. It does FN nowt!

What model?

It'll need to be pressed with prob something like the 7 or 8 key etc.

It's the FN key plus another, look for a sun symbol on another key, eg: on F5 That should do contrast.
For brightness, on my laptop it's the FN key plus the up and down arrows, again you're looking for either a sun symbol or maybe a lightbulb
good luck!

As someone who just sat in my car in the sun on my laptop - I can confirm it was really hard to see the screen even with everything set to max brightness.

Sit in the shade?
