Is there a way to apply the compatibility settings in my internet explorer to the internet explorer viewer in the designer?

Compatibility mode may be enabled already, if it is enabled in Internet Explorer in the OS. If it is, then compatibility mode may apply to the instance of IE running in the Ignition Client. I wasn’t able to find much information on the topic through the MSDN website.
