AW3423DWF, feature request
Hi,
I am mostly happy with AW3423DWF, but the firmware's logic about pixel refresh is confusing: why it has to shut down the monitor instead of simply entering standby afterward?
I used it as a daily driver and every time when the notification pops out I need to manually click the joystick and then the monitor will shut down after finishing refreshing. Then, to continue using the monitor, I need to manually power the monitor on again, which I found particularly annoying and inconvenient.
Can an upcoming firmware update change the shut-down behavior into standby? That would make people's life easier with the 4-hour refreshing cycle.
Additionally, can the firmware update make it available for users to manually set an auto-fresh timer? For example, after entering standby for X minutes, the monitor will go to refresh itself automatically. Currently, users have no clue when will it perform an auto-refresh and it is often the case for me that the monitor pops the notification out right after I power it on and resume working.
Thanks for replying.

You can turn off that notification and set it to automatically happen next time the monitor goes into standby.
That is how I have mine set up and I never have to worry about a pixel refresh.

Hmm, yah... what you mentioned is indeed a workaround.
However, my original point was that I want a rather seamless experience when I manually click to proceed to refresh. If the monitor can just get right back to working status instead of shutting down, it would be better.
If I am to use standby mode to trigger the refresh, I do need to intentionally switch off signal input so my laptop does take some time to rearrange my desktop and sometimes triggers windows 11's bug about correctly displaying desktop icons, etc.
