Confusing language with Zoom Controls option in Setup Wizard

Post#1 by hamfast » 03 Mar 2020, 07:49

Greetings. We are users of Porteus Kiosk for several years now. We have just upgraded to Porteus Kiosk 5.0.0.

In the Setup Wizard there is an option for enabling/disabling the Zoom controls in the Kiosk Client. The hint text says “Disable Zoom Controls – Disable this option to…” and the option is enabled by default. This is confusing.

Are the Zoom Controls in the chosen browser Enabled (by default) or is the Option itself enabled - IOW, the Switch Off Zoom Controls is enabled and therefore switched off?

Hello hamfast,

Kiosk has zoom controls enabled by default and thats why this option is enabled in the wizard by default.
If you disable this option in the wizard then zoom controls will be also disabled in kiosk.

Wizard supposed to hint the users which functions are enabled and which are not enabled by default in the system.

Thanks
