How do I turn off "Automatically adjust brightness" on Mountain Lion using AppleScript

Question

I'm new to Mac, Applescript and Automator and I'm trying to make a automation for when I perform on stage and found a script to set the brightness all the way up but can't find a script to disable "Automatically adjust brightness". Any help would be appreicated.

Answer 1

You could even both “set the brightness all the way up” and “disable Automatically adjust brightness” with just one and the same script:
tell application "System Preferences"
    -- launch
    -- activate
    set current pane to pane id "com.apple.preference.displays"
    reveal anchor "displaysDisplayTab" of current pane
    tell application "System Events"
        tell process "System Preferences"
            tell group 1 of tab group 1 of window 1
                set value of slider 1 to 1.0 -- max
                tell checkbox 1
                    if value is 1 then click
                end tell
            end tell
        end tell
    end tell
    quit -- optional
end tell
