Active and Splitscreen mode: 
To switch between the active apps (for example between the Browser and the Whiteboard) without closing them click on the Active icon and select the desired app. 

If needed, 2 apps can be used at the same time (for example the Browser and the Whiteboard). While in "Active" mode click on the ∏∏ option in the upper right corner of the active panels to open them on only half the screen.

While in splitscreen mode move the separator to make the working area of the left or the right app smaller or bigger.

While using an app you can use the bubble menu to go back to the home screen, change between apps, use the marking tool, zoom in on a portion of the screen or take a print-screen. Some of these options may not be available at all times.

Lock - to lock the Lux module (for the moment it doesn't do anything special)

 

Apps - browse and open the installed apps, including the ones added using the Cleverstore. If you find an app either on the App store or the Google Play store that could be interesting to use on the Interactive Displays ask the IT team to check. If it's compatible with the interactive displays and GDPR friendly we will install it for you.
