Turn off bell sound globally on securecrt

[mickrussom]

Hi securecrt team and friends of securecrt -

Long time user here, and its one of the few apps I pay for - I love it.

two issues:

1) I need a global sound disable. The tab-complete ding drives me insane and I don't want to go to each profile as I have hundreds and disable audio bell. I could write a script to edit each ini file and turn it off, but it would super handy to have a global sound off for securecrt.

2) I also noticed its hard to change font size in tabs, I have to open a new window to change font sizes. So more "elastic" font change would be nice.

Thanks for the feedback!

Perhaps you could edit your sessions at the same time. Here are a couple of tips that illustrate how:

Will either of these solutions work for you?

2) I also noticed its hard to change font size in tabs, I have to open a new window to change font sizes. So more "elastic" font change would be nice.

Geometry is dictated by the first tab. I have created a feature request in our SecureCRT enhancement database to change this behavior. If we do make a change, we will post to this thread.

Hi mickrussom,

Some time ago you expressed interest in having the ability to maintain the font specific to each session when launching sessions in tabs in SecureCRT.

We have recently implemented this functionality in SecureCRT 9.0 beta 1 (for Windows). Prior to this release, the first session opened would dictate the font/character encoding/zoom level for any subsequent sessions launched in tabs.

Should you wish to test out the new behavior, please refer to the following link to download SecureCRT 9.0 beta 1:

We would be happy to hear any feedback regarding how well (or not) the newer behavior meets your needs! Please send an email to support@vandyke.com with any questions or concerns that you may have about 9.0 beta 1!
