Release Notes

UI enhancements
• UI enhancement to capture logs of the application console. To enable the client to log error messages of an application console, select
the Enable Application Console Log check box in the Troubleshooting window. All logs are saved to the trouble_shoot folder with the
name TerminalName_proc_name_date_time.log.
• UI enhancement to select DisplayPorts for DP audio. In the Audio tab, you can click either Port 1 or Port 2 to select your DisplayPort
preference.
• UI enhancement to display Frames Per Second (FPS) in the Performance Monitor window. You can use the Performance Monitor
option to display the CPU usage history with Frames Per Second (FPS), memory usage, and networking information.
• Supports customizing the text color in the lock window using the INI parameter SignonStatusColor=“rrr ggg bbb”. The
option species the sign-on status and the unlocking status text color respectively in the RGB string format. The decimal numbers rrr,
ggg, and bbb are in the range of 0—255. By default, the status text color is light red ("255 60 60") for ThinOS lite and gray for ThinOS.
• Supports creating a VDI connection by a low-privileged user using the INI parameter EnableNewConnection={yes,no}. If the
PRIVILEGE parameter is set to Low and the EnableNewConnection parameter is set to yes, an option to create a connection is
enabled in the Connect Manager window on the classic desktop. On the zero desktop, the Add Connection button is added.
• Supports a new system variable—$UMAC—for MAC address in the uppercase format.
