Chapter 5. The User Interface
The Control Panel
WinClient Control Panel
Since the WinClient Control Panel (for the ActiveX Web Viewer and WinClient AP) contains the most complete functionality, this section describes the WinClient Control Panel. Although the Java Control Panel (for the Web Viewer and Java Client AP) does not enable all of the features that this one does, the functions that they do share are the same, and you can refer to the information described here when using it.
The Control Panel is hidden at the upper or lower center of the screen (the default is at the upper center), and becomes visible when you mouse over it. The panel consists of three rows: an icon row at the top, and two text rows below it:
Note: The above image shows the complete Control Panel. The icons that appear can be user selected. See Control Panel Configuration, page 82, for details.
By default, the upper text row shows the video resolution of the remote display. As the mouse pointer moves over the icons in the icon bar, however, the information in the upper text row changes to describe the icon's function. In addition, if a message from another user is entered in the message board, and you have not opened the message board in your session, the message will appear in the upper row.
The lower row shows the IP address of the device you are accessing at the left of the row. The center of the row indicates which bus the user is on (the number before the slash), and the total number of users on that bus (the number behind the slash).
