 Modify Auto-scroll group options to specify whether you want the window to scroll
when the cursor (for text-only screens) or mouse reaches a boundary:
 Select Cursor (text-mode only) to automatically scroll when the cursor comes to
an edge of the Master Connection Window when you hold the CTRL key down.
 Select Mouse (text & graphics mode) to automatically scroll when the mouse
comes to an edge of the Master Connection Window when you hold the CTRL key
down.
 Modify Text-mode Display options for Host computers that display text screens, rather
than graphical screens:
 Use the Font drop-down list to select the typeface and type size to use for
viewing remote connections locally. By changing the font, you can increase or
decrease the size of the Host computer screen displayed in the Master
Connection window. A smaller font lets you see more of the Host computer
display. A larger font improves readability. You can preview the fonts from each
entry in the Font list. The names of the fonts consist of a typeface name and a
size. Text fonts called PROXY are fonts that are included with this software
package. Fonts with other typeface names are Windows fonts that are also
suitable for text display.
 Use the Text refresh rate settings to specify the rate at which changes in the
text display are updated on your screen. This allows you to find a suitable
compromise between “refresh rate” and the amount of computation time and
network resources spent in updating the text display. Note the following:
- The Foreground setting rate you select applies when the Connection window
is active.
- The Background setting rate you select applies when the Connection window
is not active.
In general, if you have sufficient computational power and a speedy connection, you
should leave both refresh rates set to Fast.
 Modify the Text-mode Mouse group to control how information from the mouse on the
local computer is transmitted to a remote Host computer when it operates in text mode:
 Check Left button clicks to ensure that left mouse button clicks are sent to the
remote Host computer.
 Check Right button clicks to ensure that right mouse button clicks are sent to
the remote Host computer.
 There are three different ways in which the motion of the mouse on the Master
can be interpreted and sent to the remote Host computer:
- If you select No motion, then the mouse does not move at all.
- If you select Absolute motion, then the Host computer is provided an absolute
mouse position [for example, a coordinate such as (44,13)].
- If you select Relative motion, then only the differential motion of the mouse
(up, down, left, or right from current position) is sent to the Host computer.
