You can change the following settings with the Control Strip modules:
m Monitor Resolution lets you change the resolution of the screen.
m Monitor BitDepth lets you change the number of colors on your screen.
m Sound Volume lets you change the volume of the system sound.
To use a module, press it and choose a setting from the pop-up menu that
appears.
Note: If you use more than one monitor, the monitors are identified by
number in the Control Strip menus. To see which number goes with which
monitor, experiment with the modules, or open the Monitors control panel (in
the Control Panels folder, available from the Apple K menu) and press the
Identify button. The number of each monitor appears on its screen. (On some
models, the control panel has a different name.)
