Control Strip control panel

The Control Strip control panel is a control panel in classic Mac OS that sets options related to the Control Strip.

History
The Control Strip and associated control panel were first introduced with the 68040-based PowerBook Duo 280 and 500 series, which ran System 7.1 with specific System Enablers. It was included with all other models that supported Mac OS 7.5.3 and later versions of classic Mac OS. It was not continued as a feature of Mac OS X, which did not support the Control Strip except through the Classic environment, which itself was phased out with the end of PowerPC support.

Show/Hide section
In this section of the control panel, the presence of the Control Strip could be turned on and off. A hot key could also be set to toggle its appearance without the need to open the control panel.

Font Settings
The preferred font and font size can be set specifically for the menus that appear when Control Strip modules are clicked.
