Apple IIe Card - Manual (Page 111)

If you have a color monitor, you can choose between a color or
monochrome display. Even with a color monitor, however, there are
times when working in monochrome is an advantage. First, because of
the manner in which the Apple IIe produces color, you may see “color
fringing”—a slight color cast around the edges of text characters. If so,
switching to monochrome avoids the problem.
❖ By the way: You can improve the computer’s processing
performance in the Apple IIe environment if you set the Display
setting to Monochrome in the Option Panel.
❖
To change the Display setting, follow these steps:
1. Press Control-
x-Esc.
The Option Panel appears, with the General Controls panel displayed.
The pointer changes to a crosshair when you place it in the General
Controls panel.
2. Click the button for the setting you want.
After you close the Option Panel, the Display setting you chose remains
in effect until you change the setting again.
