  1. @Starlord_94, sorry about that, and @Joe Tauser, you'are right <sarcasm_deserved> I added a note to the UniStream Display topic, and to the other VNC topics: "To enable VNC Server on a UniStream Controller and set Passwords via UniLogic, click Passwords on the Solution Explorer." with a clickable link to show exactly where that is. Thanks for posting!
  2. @DrJamesonGuyI see your point--but I don't recall receiving this request before. I just put in a feature request--I will post when I get a response from the team.
  3. Any other people who may be interested--please post your time zone and preferred topic, I will check regarding additional time slots.
  4. Hi @Ausman They are indeed interactive - we make them available for viewing afterwards. And you are correct--the Q&A is not published along with the webinar. This series is run by our US team. I will suggest that we pick a more Down-Under friendly time in the future. I actually just made a blog post explaining where to find this recorded series.

  19. @Ausman, both do run as Admin...but somehow, in the wonderful world of WinDoze....this issue comes up sometimes, but not often enough of consistently enough to be able to trouble shoot.
  20. Hi @Nanashi I did some checking :-) In the wish list. In general as a quick workaround you can use flat button to cover all buttons that you wish to hide. In the wish list. This can done via Project-level Actions, scroll down to the DOK actions: 4. A way to be able to change the black background of the Trends, or just enable the user to choose between white and black, eventually with the white to have a black default border to divide it from the surrounding buttons and labels. Already available in latest version: It wasn't - but it is now, in the Download/UpLoad topic Thanks for taking the time to contact us--it does sometimes take us time to respond, but we try
  21. Just wanted to let you know that such a mechanism is indeed in the to-do list. I don't have a 'when' at the moment, will update when I do.
  22. Thanks for cluing me in, Aus--done. That page had a button 'create support request' - the page would be blank if the user had not ever created a request But it is really much more logical to bring them to the support portal - which didn't exist when the forum was designed.
