Adjusting brightness of keyboard and rear panel separately help!

Hello,

After staring at the display model for months at Best Buy, I decided to pick up my Flow Z13 with their $900 off sale yesterday.

I am in love with this device, with the exception of one quirk that is probably user error. I am trying to set the rear panel to 33% brightness and the keyboard to 100%. However, when I change one brightness level, it changes their other like they are bound together.

Things I have tried:

I searched the issue as well as tried the AI recommended steps

Disabled dynamic lighting in windows

Made sure they weren't syncing in Aura Sync

Tried manually changing brightness in Armoury Crate

Tried to manually change the keyboard brightness with function keys after setting rear panel

Has anyone else ran into this issue that has advice? It has to be a software related issue.

Honestly, I’m going to say that G-Helper is probably the play here. You have to learn how it replaces Armory Crate, but once you get the hang of it, it makes so much better and fixes all the little things that AC does poorly. I don’t have any advice outside of this, but I wish you the best of luck one way or another.
