        Opera's mouse gestures only work within Opera. You can't control programs outside of Opera with them.

          Create new mouse gesture in [Application] section (within mouse gestures configuration)

          Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","changebrightness 20"
          (increase brightness to 20)

          or

          Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","changebrightness -20"
          (decrease brightness to 20)

          changebrightness -10
          changebrightness 5 2

                Hello............

                do I need to adjust anything on above in order to make this work ?

                My nircmd works perfectly on Opera on some other commands but not working with this screen brightness.

                Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","changebrightness 20" (increase brightness to 20)

                or

                Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","changebrightness -20" (decrease brightness to 20)

                changebrightness -10 changebrightness 5 2

                Thank you very much.
