Full Screen Display
When Realtime Rack is launched, the application expands to fill the entire screen (it
cannot be re-sized). The application does not have a standard Mac OS X Menu Bar at the
top of the screen.
Note: Unlike most Mac OS X applications in full screen mode, there is no option
to show a menu bar when the mouse is moved to the top of the screen.
Multiple Display Operation
Multiple display screens are supported. With multiple-display systems, when the Moni-
tors preference is set to ALL, the screen on each display can have different View screen
so more elements can be displayed concurrently. For details, see
“Monitors Menu” on
page 116 .
