The Live Viewer is a window that displays the live progress of your mosaic as it's being generated. It can be displayed on the same monitor as your Muse Mosaic software or another connected monitor. Muse Mosaic offers several fantastic options related to this feature. 



1. To access the Mosaic Player, click the Mosaic Player slider on the top right of your screen.


2. In the Viewer Options section, you can determine whether or not you want your Mosaic Player to appear Full Screen (filling the entire, currently active monitor screen) or if you want it to Show in Windowkey (which will provide an additional window containing the active Mosaic Player for you to move around your desktop or connected monitors as you see fit. You can also use the shortcut keys "spacebar" to auto-start or pause your live mosaic. You can use the "F" key to full-screen your mosaic and the "ESC" key to exit the entire screen.
