LapLink MN-LGD011-XX-US manual Temporarily changing the host screen

Click the Settings button in Remote Control Options to change the quality of your view of the host screen without affecting the host screen itself.

On the Guest Display tab, adjust these options:

Send Font Information Displays text and symbols on the guest computer. Checking this box speeds display per- formance but may not present the most accurate represen- tation of text and symbols.

Prevent Display of Large Bitmaps Determines the size of the largest bitmap to be displayed in your view, rang- ing from 32 by 32 to 512 by 512 pixels. Choosing a smaller size improves performance but may cause bitmaps not to appear in some dialog boxes, wizards, and buttons. (Exper- iment with the setting, increasing it as necessary to display larger bitmaps.)

On the Guest Colors tab, adjust these options:

Use Solid Colors Displays solid colors instead of dith- ered, or patterned, colors. Performance is not affected, but your view of the host may improve.

Bitmap Color Selects the palette used to display bitmaps. The values range from Monochrome to True Color (24 bit). Choose a palette with fewer colors to improve performance.

Temporarily changing the host screen
