Barco – Apollo – DOC-3197-2 – user's manual – Revision 08 – November 2006
7.6.3.1 Remote Desktop tab
Layout Selector
All of the options are only selectable when the Layout Selector is displayed.
Choose Show Selector to display the Layout Selector in the workspace. The position of the Layout Selector in the
workspace can be specified in reference to the Remote Desktop: Either on Left Side (workspace is split vertically)
or Above the Desktop (workspace is split horizontally).
The Layout Selector covers the entire workspace if the Remote Desktop is not displayed.
Choose Show Stack to display all loaded layouts. These can be depicted either to the right of the available layouts
(Show Buttons on Left Side) or below the available layouts (Show Buttons Above the Stack).
Use the list box to specify the icon size of the available layouts. Layouts can be listed only by name (without
icon) as well.
Use the Lock Selector option to disable the Layout Selector functionality. Already loaded layouts cannot be un-
loaded and not yet loaded layouts cannot be loaded. The buttons of all layouts are then disabled as well.
Remote Desktop:
All of the options are only selectable when the Remote Desktop is displayed.
Select Show Desktop to display the Remote Desktop in the workspace. The Keep Aspect Ratio option has to be
checked to show the display wall with the actual aspect ratio. This preserves the aspect ratio of the virtual desk-
top and matches the aspect ratio of the actual module configuration. The mini windows have the same aspect
ratios as the display wall windows.
Use the Lock Desktop option to disable and lock the functionality of the Remote Desktop application as well. The
mini windows can then no longer be manipulated and the Display Wall cannot be changed via the Remote
Desktop. Changes carried out on the Display Wall continue to be shown.
