Session Options

The Sessions Options window provides

 

 

additional session viewer control adjustments.

 

 

This window has the General and Mouse tabs.

 

 

You can control the Keyboard pass through

 

 

mode from the General tab. Select Pass all

 

 

keystrokes to target to pass your management

 

 

station's keystrokes to the remote system.

 

 

The mouse tab contains two sections: Single

 

 

Cursor and Mouse Acceleration. The Single

 

 

Cursor feature is provided in order to offset

 

 

mouse alignment issues on some remote

 

 

operating systems. Once the viewer enters

 

 

Single Cursor mode, the mouse pointer is

 

 

trapped within the viewer window. Press the

 

 

termination key to exit out of this mode. Use

 

 

this control to select the key that will exit out

 

 

of single cursor mode.

 

 

Mouse Acceleration optimizes the mouse

 

 

performance depending upon your operating

 

 

system.

 

 

 

 

Single Cursor

Enables single cursor mode in the Viewer. In

 

 

this mode, the client cursor is hidden from

 

 

view so that only the server's cursor is visible.

 

 

The client cursor is also trapped within the

 

 

Viewer's frame. The user will not be able to use

 

 

the cursor outside of the Viewer window until

 

 

they press the Termination Key specified in

 

 

the Session Options - Mouse tab.
