Using Hog® 2PC Software
Hog iPC Handbook 55
Advanced Operations
Displaying Touchscreen Windows
The Hog iPC console supports only three touchscreen monitors, but Hog 2PC software allows
for four separate screens. If you have a show that was programmed for a Wholehog 2 console
using additional monitors, viewing these additional screens may be awkward with the Hog
iPC
console. To turn off the additional screens, within Hog
2PC, select Setup, then Control Panel to
access Display 1 and Display 2 (which correspond to the two external displays on the
Wholehog 2 console).
Note: An optional third monitor or touchscreen provides additional space
for these screens. See
Using an Optional 3rd Monitor with Hog 2PC
on page 51 for more information.
Changing Window Positions
The Hog iPC console centers the Hog 2PC screens on the two included touchscreens by
default. This option can be enabled or disabled in the Hog
iPC Configuration Panel's
Start-up OS tab (see page 18).
• When the Default Positions button is checked, the Hog 2PC screens restore to the factory
settings whenever Hog
2PC is launched.
• When this function is disabled, Hog 2PC will recall the last position of the Hog 2PC
screens.
The Hog 2PC screen positions are locked on the Hog iPC console. To unlock them, right click on
a blue portion of the Hog
2PC Frontpanel and select “Lock Position”. Once screen positions are
unlocked, you can move them on the monitor using one of the following methods:
• Left click and drag the window’s title bar (as with any other Windows application),
• Right click and drag anywhere on the window,
• Right click and use the cursor keys.
Note: As the Frontpanel does not have a title bar, it can only be moved by
positioning the mouse cursor over any blue part of the panel, then
left clicking and dragging the mouse.
It is also possible to minimize some or all of the Hog 2PC windows if you wish. Right click on
the Frontpanel window and select one of the options from the popup menu:
• Minimize All hides all of the Hog 2PC windows
• Minimize hides only the Frontpanel window.
• Show All restores any of the Hog 2PC windows that have been minimized.
You can also minimize the touchscreen windows individually with the same method used in
any other Windows application.
