• hide the desktop icons

  I am running Yosemite 10.10.5... When I share my screen with others, I want to hide my desktop icons. I used to have an option called "Show items on desktop" I unchecked when I right click on my desktop... How to re - activate this option/icon... or how do we do now? Thank you in advance.

  I guess that you don't want an AppleScript object parked on your desktop or Dock that someone could run to display the icons on your desktop. This is a Bash script that displays an AppleScript dialog box to allow you a choice of a normal life (crowded) or share (naked) desktop. Tested on OS X 10.11.4.

  USER INTERFACE

  

  Screen sharing will clear your desk of all. Normal will bring back the clutter.

  Code:

  #! / bin/bash

  #

  # presenter.sh - compact desktop Hide/restore for presentations or

  # screen sharing.

  #

  function GetDialog()

  {

  UserInput = $(osascript <<-AppleScript)

  Tell application "SystemUIServer".

  activate

  Set userCanceled false

  myReturn the value «»

  Try

  Set dialogResult to ¬

  Display dialog "OS X the appearance of the desktop" ¬

  ¬ buttons {'Cancel", 'screen sharing', 'Normal'}

  default button 2 with the score of the icon

  the error number - 128

  userCanceled set to true

  try to end

  If userCanceled then

  Set myReturn "Cancel".

  otherwise if the dialogResult back button is 'Normal' then

  Set myReturn "True".

  otherwise if the dialogResult back button is 'Screen sharing' then

  Set myReturn "False".

  end if

  return myReturn

  tell the end

  }

  GetDialog

  case "${UserInput}.

• How to lock the desktop icons in a multiple monitor configuration

  Original title: lock the desktop icons - and display

  Working with Windows 7 Home Premium has a problem processing 2 pieces: no matter how many times I said I want the display screen appears on the monitor, the screen of the computer, every day he arbitrarily returns to the computer screen only. That creates the 2nd problem: the desktop icons that I have arranged for the largest monitor rearrange themselves to adapt to the computer screen. Is there a way I can lock the icons in this position that I used to be able to do? Or is it possible that I can keep the display to go back to the computer screen? (I'm careful to apply the instructions to display before the specified seconds elapse).

   

  Hello

  I suggest you to go through the steps mentioned in the link and the Coachman.

  On a system running Microsoft Windows 7, the desktop icons can be moved to positions at random during another monitor main screen.

• In Windows 7, how "to hide the letters highlighted for the keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key" (as in XP)?

  My underlined letters are all the time in menus and dialog boxes, and I want to disable them.

  The first thing I did was go to control panel, accessibility, making the keyboard easy to use, to turn off underline keyboard shortcuts and access keys - but it is already off.

  So how do you disable these underscores in Windows 7?

  Hello Dmbyrnes,

  I understand that you may be eager to hide the menu bar.  Attached, are steps that can be beneficial in addressing you request...

  (1) first Rt click on the bottom of the menu and uncheck lock the toolbars. Then click on organize > layout > menu bar make sure is unaudited.

  From there you should be able to hit the Alt key and the Bar Menu to repopulate.  If you please you would follow with me at your convenience, I would be very happy.

  Thank you
