Default Playback Window Settings

When playing back a PC-Duo screen recording, the display of the PC-Duo Playback window can be controlled using the Playback Window Settings tab.  Select the following:
 
u   Use Viewer Settings to specify how a remote computer is displayed by default:
 
w   Select Full Screen to fill the entire screen of the local computer with a view of the Host computer monitor in the PC-Duo Master Cycling Monitor window.
w   Select Fit to window to scale the display of the remote computer to fit into the PC-Duo Master Cycling Monitor window.
w   Select Fit 1-to-1 to have each pixel on the remote display correspond to one pixel on the local computer (set by default).
w   Select Halftone to improve the quality of the display when the Master is in Fit to Window mode.
 
NOTE: The Halftone option affects only the way the screen is rendered by the Master, and may increase CPU usage on the Master.
 
u   Modify the Auto-scroll group options to specify whether you want the window to scroll when the cursor or mouse reaches a boundary:
 
w   Select Cursor (text-mode only) to scroll automatically when the cursor comes to an edge of the PC-Duo Master Connection Window when you hold the Ctrl key down (set by default).
w   Select Mouse (text & graphics mode) to scroll automatically when the mouse comes to an edge of PC-Duo Master Connection Window when you hold the Ctrl key down (set by default).
 
The Font drop-down list allows you to select the typeface and type size used to display the remote Host computer screen in the PC-Duo Master Cycling Monitor window (set to "PC-Duo 8x14" by default).  By varying the font, you can increase or decrease the size of the Host computer screen displayed in the PC-Duo Master Cycling Monitor window.  If you use a small font, you can display more of the Host computer in a small window. To improve readability (but require a larger window), use a large font.  The fonts in the list are previewed as they actually appear. The names of the fonts are composed of a typeface name and a size. PC-Duo text fonts are included with the software package.  Fonts with other typeface names are Windows fonts that are also suitable for text display.
