Control RGB Side Lights?

Does anyone know how to control the RGB side lights?  I see that you can turn them off in the menu, but I would like to be able to maybe control them via G-code or at least turn them up to high while printing so my camera can see better.  They usually go pretty dim when the print is running.  Maybe this is a feature request.

This is the Prusa Article: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/status-led-explained-mk4-xl_418975

Use-defined LED statuses

LEDs can be controlled using a G-code M150, you can learn more about it at Marlin FW site.

That article seems to be concerned with the lights on the LCD display, not the lights on the side of the XL. I agree with the OP. I would like those light to stay on while printing.

I also would like to be able to increase the brightness of the XL's lights. I like to be able to see a finished print with my camera.
