The HP VUE Desktop occupies each workspace. Its a handy place to put the files, directories, actions, and applications that you use most frequently.

To place an object on the Desktop, you drag its icon from a File Manager or Toolbox window then drop it on the workspace backdrop. A Desktop icon appears right where you drop the object.

You use Desktop icons exactly like the icons in the File Manager or Toolbox. To execute an object's default action, double-click its icon on the Desktop.

Each Desktop object also has a popup menu containing additional commands and actions for the object. To display the popup menu for a Desktop object using the mouse, point to the icon, then press and hold the right mouse button. To display the menu with the keyboard, use Alt+Tab until the icon is highlighted, then press F4.

NOTE: The Desktop is not available in HP VUE Lite.
