- Look@Me is a small application that allows you to observe the
- desktop of another Look@Me or Timbuktu Pro user.
-
- ** Using Look@Me **
-
- To observe another Look@Me or Timbuktu Pro user:
-
- 1. Enter the remote user's IP address in the IP field.
-
- 2. Click Observe.
-
- The IP address you enter is automatically saved and added to the
- drop-down list. The list remembers the four most recent addresses.
-
- * If you are logging on to a Timbuktu Pro-equipped computer, you may be
- asked for a name and a password.
-
- An observation window with the name of the remote computer (or "host")
- opens. Inside this window you will see the desktop of the selected
- computer.
-
-
- To be observed by another Look@Me or Timbuktu Pro user:
-
- 1. Start Look@Me.
-
- 2. Click the window curtains (or select 'Allow others to see' from the
- Settings menu).
-
- The curtains will slide back, revealing a little face.
-
- When another user decides to look at your desktop, an alert box will
- pop up to tell you that you have a guest. If you don't want to allow
- that user to observe your desktop, you can disconnect the observer by
- clicking your alert box's Disconnect button.
-
-
- To change Look@Me's observation behavior:
-
- * Select 'Preferences' from the Settings menu. The Preferences dialog box
- appears.
-
- * You can edit your computer name (the name seen by the remote user)
- in the User Name field.
-
- * You can allow the observer to see your Wallpaper patterns by turning
- on 'Display Wallpaper.' Note: If 'Display Wallpaper' is activated,
- the observation speed will slow down.
-
- * You can disable Look@Me's AutoScroll feature. When AutoScrolling is
- off, you can manually use the scroll bar to shift your view of the
- remote computer's desktop. Note: You can also turn AutoScrolling on
- and off by selecting 'AutoScroll' from the menu available in the
- upper left-hand corner of an open Observe window.
