Description

Screensaver and sleep mode can be temporarily inhibited from a status-bar application. It is useful when you want a visible desktop control for keeping the system awake during a specific activity.

This changes power and locking behavior only while enabled. Turn it off after presentations, media playback, or long tasks to avoid battery drain and unattended unlocked sessions.
