How can I tell Ubuntu 18.04 to do nothing when I close my laptop lid? [duplicate]

Power Change options in dconf-editor

I want my laptop to do nothing when I close the laptop lid. I found these options in dconf-editor for the laptop to do 'nothing'. However, the laptop still goes to suspended mode after I close the lid.

What did go wrong?

Install gnome-tweaks

sudo apt-get install gnome-tweaks

and invoke it with

Under the menu Power you can disable Suspend when laptop lid is closed.
