4.2 User Interface
The terminal properties important for users are the display resolution, the keyboard layout and similar settings. These settings are made in this dialog. The following sections describe these configuration options in detail.
4.2.1
Keyboard
Select a keyboard layout (the default setting is US-English) and set the keyboard properties (repeat rate and repeat delay). You can also have the keyboard number pad automatically enabled at system start. Some of the available keyboard layouts (languages) are shown in the illustration on the right.
4.2.2
Mouse
Configure the mouse buttons for right-hand or left-hand use and set the speeds and sensitivity. The Hide Cursor option hides the mouse pointer whenever the mouse remains unused for a given period of time, such as when a terminal emulation is operated solely using the keyboard.
4.2.3
Sound
You can enable system sounds for certain events, applications, notes, warnings and keyboard entries and also set the volume desired.
4.2.4
User Shell
Activate the user interface in the manner in which you did for the previously used firmware (non-UD devices with CE 5.0). In this case, the IGEL Task Bar and the desktop icons for configured sessions are no longer displayed and the system can only be operated from the Application Launcher.
This setting is useful for cases such as when you want to provide users with only one automatically starting session without allowing them to launch any other sessions from the desktop or the
Application Launcher. In this case, the Application Launcher will be hidden (security).
The illustrations below show an example of terminal emulation in Normal mode (desktop icons and
IGEL Start button visible and active) and also in Legacy mode:
