We have a Macbook, used principally by my wife, and currently she

a short interval of inactivity, while reading, prior to the
eventual onset of sleep as set in Energy Saver. I have not been
able to find any way to stop or lengthen this. I realise it is
there for a very good battery conservation reason but would like to
circumvent it temporarily.
Any suggestions please?
Hi Severin,
Have you unchecked in System Prefs > Energy Saver "Automatically
reduce brightness before display goes to sleep"?
Cheers,
Ronni
