@nwgat hello,

On models such as modern Vivobooks - windows Dynamic Lighting is the only way to control backlight :)

Do I understand correctly that MyAsus doesn't offer any RGB settings for you ? If so - I can't do anything here, since it's designed to be handled by windows directly now

did i little research it would been useful if HID LampArray was supported by g-helper, that way the color part of g-helper will work on more devices https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.devices.lights?view=winrt-26100

i asked gemini for some example code

// 1. Find all LampArray devices (Keyboards, Mice, etc.)
string selector = LampArray.GetDeviceSelector();
var devices = await DeviceInformation.FindAllAsync(selector);

// 2. Connect to a device
LampArray device = await LampArray.FromIdAsync(devices[0].Id);

// 3. Set a color (e.g., Red)
var redColor = Windows.UI.Color.FromArgb(255, 255, 0, 0);
device.SetColor(redColor);

am trying to avoid using anything asus exept the interface driver
