2)Change screen size

The current window size (number of rows and columns) can be viewed on the bottom-right hand corner of the screen.

When the reports are too wide the entries will be displayed in the following line.

To aid in viewing this better SecureCRT lets the user change the width of the screen. To do this select Options -> Session Options. Expand Terminal, select Emulation and change the Logical column size to desired width. Click OK.

Notice that the information can be viewed on a single line which makes it easier for reading. Also notice that the bottom-right hand corner now displays the new column setting.

3)Change buffer size:

This setting is very useful when reading long files or need to scroll up to compare previous output in the same screen. If the buffer is not big enough all previous display data will be lost and will be accessible for viewing unless the session is being logged. Notice the scroll bar on the right-hand side, that space is all you have available to go back.

To change the buffer settings select Options -> Session Options, expand Terminal and select Emulation. Change the Scrollback buffer to desired value and click OK.

Note that the scrollbar on the right is now very small and see all the space available to scroll up and view previous output.
