6.8.2.2 Decoration
The Decoration tab is identical for all viewers. Here you can select whether to hide or show the title bar and/or
status bar as well as the type and content of the information to be overlaid over the actual content of the viewer
window.
If the entire window content is covered by an image, for example, the term used is Blanking.
If information is displayed covering only certain positions of the actual window, the term used is In Display
Caption (IDC). You can define and activate up to 4 IDCs.
Click on Blanking (or Idc1, Idc2, Idc3, Idc4) to define the information to be depicted in the hide mode (infor-
mation to be depicted as IDC1, IDC2, IDC3, IDC4).
Then select the IdcEnable option to overlay the selected information over the actual viewer window content
according to settings.
