Screen is fully dim every time MBP wakes screen up

[nikhsub1]

Since my upgrade to High Sierra, every time my TB MBP wakes up once the monitor goes black, the screen is almost at the lowest level of brightness and I have to manually re brighten the screen. I have all options to not dim the screen set in system prefs. Any ideas? TIA!

Try resetting the SMC and resetting the NVRAM. These are both good first steps for a hardware problem like that.

Thx for the reminder! Have done both of those, I'll report back with my findings!

That seems to have fixed the issue! Thanks so much for the suggestion!

Well, spoke too soon... still goes dim.

To resurrect, this was fixed a few releases ago... was definitely a software thing.
