Program Settings
Q: Can I use a touch screen or single switch device with the Sterling software?
A:
Yes. From the Main Menu, click on the Program Settings icon.
In the upper right hand corner of the Program Settings screen,
you will see a list of drop-down menu selections. Under Interface,
if you select Direct Select, you can use a touch screen with
the lesson. The mouse is still active when using a touch screen
and can also be used to make selections. Scanning allows you
to use a single switch, mouse click, space bar or the enter
key as a selection device. Please refer to your manual for more
information on Scan Method, Scans per Item, Scan Delay, Audible
Scan and User Initiates Scan.
Q: Im using a touch screen and the mouse cursor is getting in the way. Can I hide the mouse cursor during lessons?
A:
Yes. Click on the Program Settings icon. In the lower right
corner of the Program Settings screen, you will see a check
box for hiding the mouse cursor. Simply check this box and the
mouse cursor will not appear during the lesson.
Q: Can I shut off the intro animations?
A:
Yes. Click on the Program Settings icon. In the top center of
the Program Settings screen, you will see a drop-down menu for
Animated Intros. Set it to "off" to discontinue the
animated intros. This setting is student-specific and will need
to be considered for each individual.
