General Settings

• To set the tools options:

1. Click Tools > Options. The Options dialog appears.
2. OpenGL rendering of scaled KVM images is enabled by default. If there are performance issues, select the Disable Hardware Accelerated Rendering checkbox to disable. Only available in AKC.
3. Select the Enable Logging checkbox only if directed to by Technical Support.

   This option creates a log file in your home directory.

4. Choose the Keyboard Type from the drop-down list (if necessary).

   The options include:

   • US/International
   • French (France)
   • German (Germany)
   • Japanese
   • United Kingdom
   • Korean (Korea)
   • French (Belgium)
   • Norwegian (Norway)
   • Portuguese (Portugal)
   • Danish (Denmark)
   • Swedish (Sweden)
   • German (Switzerland)
   • Hungarian (Hungary)

     In AKC, the keyboard type defaults to the local client, so this option does not apply.

5. Select Adjust Full Screen Window Size to Target Resolution Instead of Client Resolution if you prefer. Option not available for Linux clients. See Adjust Full Screen Window Size to Target Resolution for details and examples.
6. In Mac OS/VKCs launches only, Let Full Screen Window Cover the Main Menu Bar and the Dock is enabled by default. Use this setting to prevent the Java menubar from hiding the VKCs menubar when running VKCs in full-screen mode on Mac.
7. Configure hotkeys:
   • Toggle Full Screen Mode - Hotkey.

     When you enter Full Screen mode, the display of the target server becomes full screen and acquires the same resolution as the target server.

     This is the hot key used for toggling in and out of this mode.

   • Toggle Single Cursor Mode - Hotkey.

     When you enter single cursor mode, only the target server mouse cursor is visible.

     This is the hot key used to toggle in and out of single cursor mode, removing and bringing back the client mouse cursor.

   • Toggle Scaling Mode - Hotkey.

     When you enter scaling mode, the target server scales to fit your display.

     This is the hot key used to toggle in and out of scaling mode.

   • Disconnect from Target - Hotkey.

     Enable this hotkey to allow users to quickly disconnect from the target.

   For hotkey combinations, the application does not allow you to assign the same hotkey combination to more than one function.

   For example, if Q is already applied to the Disconnect from Target function, it won't be available for the Toggle Full Screen Mode function.

   Further, if a hotkey is added to the application due to an upgrade and the default value for the key is already in use, the next available value is applied to the function instead.

8. Click OK.
