Need Help with Touch Bar brightness

Hey. I was told that this mod can help me set the brightness of the Touch Bar to a high level to offset the flickering issue I have with my Touch Bar. Can anyone help out?

BetterTouchTool can not influence the Touch Bar brightness (and unfortunately I don't know an other app that might)

Thanks for the response Andreas. Do you think it's possible to write a script for it

no, sorry

Hi again Andreas. I'm wondering if there's a way to set a certain value for the ambient light sensor? Thanks.

no, that sensor just produces data, I don’t think you can modify the values it reports to the system

Aw man, so is there no way to have your touch bar brightness set to high? Any makeshift solutions you can think of before I go and fix this thing?

Maybe it can be done via Apple's private Touch Bar frameworks, I believe they have some functions to modify the brightness. However that would require reverse engineering them and figuring out how to modify the brightness.

Oh so some fine tuning? I don't trust myself to do that haha. I appreciate the solutions and your help all in all Andreas!

unfortunately not just some fine tuning, some low level reverse engineering of Apple's private code. Unfortunately I don't think anybody has looked into this yet. I think you will be out of luck unless you can figure out this yourself ;-(

I'll look into it for sure, do you know where I should begin (how do I find this code, and what tools should I use) ? I'll definitely try to dedicate the time and effort to get this to work if I'm able to.

It's probably in the DFRBrightness framework:

However unless you have at least some coding experience I don't think it will be possible to make use of this

Oh yeah, Im definitely out of luck. I'll see what I can do with this though, thanks again!
