Display Adjustment Utility
Use the Display Adjustment Utility to adjust the geometry, sub-brightness, sub-contrast, and color of Power Macintosh G3 All-in-one and iMac displays. The utility is designed to run under Mac OS 8.1 or greater.
Note: When running this utility, QuickTime™ v2.5 (or later) extension and QuickTime™ PowerPlug v2.5 (or later) extension must be enabled.
Geometry Adjustments
Save - Clicking this button saves the geometry adjustments you have performed.
Note: For Rotation, Parallelogram, and Pincushion Bal, adjustments at one resolution will also apply to the other resolutions. However, adjustments other than Rotation, Parallelogram, and Pincushion Bal are linked to the resolution that the display is currently using.
CAUTION: In order to save a complete set of geometry adjustments for a specific resolution you must first click the "Save" button and then "Quit" the Display Adjustment Utility. You may then launch the Display Adjustment Utility again, change to a different resolution, and make geometry adjustments for the next resolution. Failure to quit the Display Adjustment Utility before changing resolutions will cause the adjustments for the previous resolution to be lost.
Revert - Clicking this button restores the display to the last set of saved geometry adjustments. Once you save a set of adjustments, you cannot revert to a previous set of adjustments.
Factory Setting - Clicking this button sets the geometry adjustments to pre-defined factory settings.
Color Adjustments
Save - Clicking this button saves the color adjustments.
Note: In order for the saved Color, Sub Contrast, or Sub Brightness to take effect you must restart the machine. A dialog box will appear when you click on the "Save" button asking you to either "Restart" or "Cancel". Cancel means the adjustments will not be saved. Restart means the color adjustments will be saved (as well as any geometry adjustments that were made for the current resolution) and the machine will be restarted automatically.
CAUTION: Be careful when performing color, sub-brightness, and sub-contrast adjustments: There are no pre-defined factory settings for color, sub-brightness, or sub-contrast. Do not turn sub-brightness and sub-contrast all the way down. If you do, you may not be able to see the controls clearly enough to readjust them.
Revert - Clicking this button restores the display to the last set of adjustments. Once you save a set of adjustments, you cannot revert to a previous set of adjustments.
