After resetting the Omnii, the desktop appearance will be very different. The programs are accessed with
finger (or stylus) taps and swipes. If there are more applications than shown on one screen, a white ani-
mated dot will be present on the side of the screen in the direction of the next set of icons. Swiping the
screen to that direction will move the display to the next screen.
A different program, PsionVU Access , enables you to customize your computer settings, remove or add
shortcuts to the Favourites Bar and Control Panel, and limit access to various different components on the
computer and the system tray icons for security. For details see “PsionVU Access” on page 92. To change
your Desktop background, refer to “Shell Settings” on page 94.
Active Tasks Bar
Open applications are shown in the top bar—the most recently opened is the first icon on the left. Tapping
once on a program icon will maximize the application. This feature replaces the Task Manager of the
Windows Classic Shell.
Note: Although the Desktop appearance defaults to the “Ingenuity” theme, the theme is not
changed using the PsionVU Shell icon. To change themes, open the Shell Settings>Advanced
menu in PsionVU Access (see “Shell Settings” on page 94).
