Chapter1 Getting Started with Security Manager
Accessing Online Help
•Dialog Box is too big for the screen—The minimum screen resolution for the Security Manager
client is actually bigger than the best screen resolution available on many laptops (for screen
resolution requirements, see the client system requirements in the Installation Guide for Cisco
Security Manager). Because some dialog boxes are quite large, if you run the client on a laptop, you
might find the occasional dialog box that is too big to fit on your screen.
Usually, you can reposition the dialog box to get access to the OK, Cancel, and Help buttons.
However, if you cannot get those buttons on the screen, you can use the following techniques to
perform the same actions:
–
OK—Put your cursor in a field near the bottom of the dialog box, then press Tab to move from
field to field. Typically, the first off-screen field is the OK button. When the cursor highlight
moves off screen, press Enter.
You can also put the cursor in a field that does not allow carriage returns (for example, the
typical Name field) and press Enter. In many cases, this is the equivalent of clicking OK.
–
Cancel—Click the X on the right side of the window’s title bar.
–
Help—Press F1.
