Gscreen - a GTK / Glade / Python based screen

No, it will not hide the button. If you wish to hide also the button, you will have to edit the glade file and set the visible property of the corresponding button too false.

Rick,

Are you running gscreen on a mill or lathe?

Chris,

I have been toying with the idea for porttrait mode. I want to use a 19" or larger touch screen that would allow the bottom section to be the keyboard. Is this even possible?

We have two lathes running Gscreen, and soon to be 3, we will be starting our third retrofit in the next 2-3 weeks hopefully


Thanks

Rick

try this (works on my laptop)
go to System / preferences / monitors

on the monitor screen there should be a checkbox for show monitors in panel - check it.
you should see a monitor appear in the panel. click it.
If you graphics card supports it you should see options to rotate the screen.

If that doesn't work then there are probably other ways - that you would need to research on the web.
