What the session may reach
All on unless you turn one off. Each opens a path
between the session and this computer, so untick anything you do not
want. Remembered per person, not per machine, so a choice made here
follows you to any browser - and if it cannot be remembered, these
stay on rather than quietly reverting to nothing.
Copy and paste text between this browser and the session,
using the buttons on the session bar.
Files copied in the session land
in this browser's downloads. To send files in, use Send files on the
session bar, or drag them onto the session.
Play the session's sound through this
browser. Starts at the first click or key press in the session, because
browsers will not play sound before one.
Print from the session and get the
document here.
Session quality
Best picture sends 32-bit colour
without lossy compression. Best on slow links sends 16-bit and
allows lossy compression. Both compress the stream losslessly, so
the choice only trades bandwidth for colour, never for artefacts
you cannot turn off.
Keyboard
Press on the left, sent on the right. Applies to the
remote desktop only - this page keeps its own keyboard.
Mouse
These shape what the session is told, not what this page
does. Pointer speed is deliberately absent: the session draws its own
cursor from the position we send, so changing that makes the drawn
cursor drift away from the real one.
For a trackpad set up the way a Mac sets one up.
Right becomes the primary button inside the session only.
