Using the Control Strip

The Control Strip is a quick and easy way to access the settings of the Monitors & Sound
control panel you are likely to adjust most often.

When you turn on your display, the Control Strip appears in the lower-left corner of the
screen. Click the pull tab once to open it.

The Control Strip may look slightly different depending on the options on your computer.

Option key and drag the Control Strip by the pull tab up or down the left or right side of the
