Preview window

Controls the behavior of the Preview Window.

configuration settings interface preview window

By default, the Preview Window is used to present incoming and outgoing call information and controls. If the Call Toolbar is preferred then the Preview Window can be disabled (untick the box).

However, the Call Toolbar does not display any missed call information so the Missed Call Notification preview window can be enabled separately to the main preview window.

The main Preview Window is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible, so will automatically hide once a call is answered and in progress. Hovering over the Tray icon or AppBar status icon will bring the Preview Window back into view during a call.

The default hide delay is 10 seconds but can be increased or disabled (set to "infinite") to keep the Preview window permanently in view for the duration of the call.

The Preview Window will display in front of other windows but without taking focus from the current application in use. When "Always on top" is enabled the Preview Window will remain in view whilst continuing to work on the current application.

 

Call Toolbar

When the Call Toolbar is docked to the top or bottom of the screen, it will be permanently in view.

However, if the Call Toolbar is not docked, it can either remain in view in front of the current application in use (default - "Always on top") or can be treated as any other application and remain out of view until selected.

 

Actions

Depending on the address book location, matching contacts are displayed in "standard" mode if opened by clicking the contact icon. With "Show Contact in Edit Mode" enabled, the contact is opened in "edit" mode, if available.
