It happened to me a few times to want to close the laptop screen For a few seconds (for reasons of objectives or subjective, security or vanity: p). But The monitor of a laptop cannot be closed "from the button" as in the case of a regular monitor (like the one for PC). Exist OPTION from a-l seta to close after a certain period of minutes, but this option is with two cuts: if you set a small time interval (a few seconds) it can become irritating, if you set a large time (a few minutes - half an hour) it does not help you, especially if you need to close the monitor immediately, and you cannot wait at least 1 min. But if you could create a shortcut that would allow you to close the monitor immediately, without having to wait seconds or minutes or, especially, Without having to close the laptop completely (as in extreme cases: D)? Certainly, it would save you from a lot of headaches. :)
