2.

Double-click the UAD Meter & Control Panel application that was installed
to Applications/Powered Plug-Ins Tools during installation.

Using the UAD Meter

The UAD Meter & Control Panel can be launched or quit at any time. It does
not need to be open or active to use UAD Powered Plug-Ins. It is completely
independent and does not require a host application. You can move the UAD
Meter to a convenient location on your screen by dragging its window title
bar.

Always On Top

The UAD Meter window can be set to normal or “Always on top” view mode.
In normal mode, the window can be covered by windows of the foreground
application. When in Always on top mode, the Meter window always
“floats” on top of other windows, even when other applications are in the
foreground, so you can always see the meter and access the disable buttons
(

page 50

). This setting is saved when the meter is quit.

To enable Always on top mode, click the control panel menu button in the
Meter window title bar (

Figure 8 on page 52

) and select “Always on top”

from the drop menu (or use the keyboard shortcut shown in the menu). The
mode is active when a checkbox appears next to the item in the drop menu.
