Q: How do I adjust brightness with ScreenDim while in some other app?

Q: I want to see the application behind ScreenDim while adjusting!
A: Switch ScreenDim to compact mode by pressing MENU and choosing "Compact view".
Q: How do I save my favorite settings?
A: Set the sliders to the settings you want, and then hold one of the five preset buttons at the
bottom of the screen down for about two seconds.
Q: What's the difference between the two sliders?
A: The top slider adjusts brightness or backlight level and the bottom one adjusts
contrast. Reducing the top slider saves battery life.
Q: How do I set ScreenDim to start up on boot?
A: As a safety measure in case you set the screen too dim, ScreenDim does not
activate on boot. However, if you press MENU (or "More options") and press "Settings",
you can set the "Notification bar" option to "always". This will make ScreenDim accessible from
the status bar even when ScreenDim is not active, and this will work even after a reboot.
Q: I am annoyed by the ebook sample display!
A: You can turn it off by pressing MENU and "Settings", and unchecking "Show ebook sample".
