5-1-3 Remote Display Window Toolbar

The Remote Display Window Toolbar provides information on the RGS connection, and allows several RGS
parameters to be controlled. The toolbar is positioned at the top of the Remote Display Window (see Figure 5-6),
and is toggled on and off by pressing the H key while in Setup Mode. In this particular case, Setup Mode can be
entered by either method—the Setup Mode button or the hotkey sequence—and the H key can be used to display
the toolbar.

The Remote Display Window Toolbar provides the following:
hostname—The hostname or IP address of the Remote Computer
•
disconnect button—Disconnects the current RGS session
•
CTRL-ALT-DEL button—Sends the CTRL-ALT-DEL key sequence to the Remote Computer. Some key sequences,
•
such as CTRL-ALT-DEL, are trapped by the Local Computer, and therefore are not forwarded to the Remote
Computer. This button allows the user to send a CTRL-ALT-DEL sequence to the Remote Computer without
using the keyboard.
Borders button—Adds or removes window borders and decorations on the Remote Display Window.
•
Snap button—When selected, this option causes the Remote Display Window to snap to the edges of the
•
monitor whenever the boundaries of the window are within 30 pixels of any edge of the monitor.
Image quality slide bar—Sets the image quality and, therefore, the amount of compression. Higher image
•
quality reduces the amount of compression, and therefore consumes greater network bandwidth.
Boost checkbox—When checked, will improve (boost) image quality for certain types of images, primarily
•
images containing significant amounts of text or lines. Because of the high contrast ratio between adjacent
pixels, such images often don't compress well. When the Boost checkbox is checked, such high contrast
cases will be compressed in a manner to better preserve their visual quality, but at the possible expense of
higher network bandwidth and/or lower image update rates. HP recommends that you experiment with
different settings of the image quality slide bar and the Boost checkbox to find the optimal settings for your
environment.
The Boost checkbox was added beginning with RGS 5.2.6, and requires that both the RGS Sender and
Receiver be version 5.2.6 or later. The Boost setting can also be controlled by the
Rgreceiver.ImageCodec.IsBoostEnabled Receiver property.
Network bandwidth—Displays the current network bandwidth consumed by this connection.
•
Image update rate—Displays the number of image updates per second for this connection.
