8.5 RGS Receiver properties
This section describes the Receiver properties. RGS supports two types of Receiver properties:
●
Per-Receiver properties—The per-Receiver properties affect all Remote Display Windows
generated by the Receiver. As noted in
Many-to-one connection on page 17 a Receiver can
connect to multiple Remote Computers (and therefore generate multiple Remote Display Windows).
●
Per-session properties—New in RGS 5.0, the per-session properties (also known as per-
connection properties) allow the user to specify the property values of each RGS connection. For
example, in a many-to-one configuration, per-session properties can be specified for each Remote
Display Window displayed by the Receiver.
8.5.1 Receiver property hierarchy
RGS supports the following hierarchy of methods to set the Receiver properties (see Figure 8-1 Receiver
property hierarchy on page 155).
Figure 8-1 Receiver property hierarchy
Properties set by methods higher on the list override properties set by methods lower on the list. For
example, a Receiver command line property can override a property specified in the rgreceiverconfig
file. Similarly, an archive file property (saved from the previous Receiver Control Panel session) can
override a Receiver default property.
8.5.1.1 Properties set using the Receiver Control Panel
The Receiver Control Panel enables the user to modify the values of many Receiver properties. For
example, as described in
Remote Clipboard operation on page 137, the user can enable/disable
Remote Clipboard using the Receiver Control Panel. This affects the Rgreceiver.Clipboard.IsEnabled
property, as described in
Receiver Remote Clipboard properties on page 169.
8.5.1.2 Receiver command line properties
See Setting properties on the command line on page 154.
8.5.1.3 rgreceiverconfig file properties
See Setting property values in a configuration file on page 153.
8.5.1.4 Archive file properties
When the Receiver is run, the user can change a number of properties using menus on the Receiver
Control Panel and the Remote Display Window. When the Receiver exits, it saves the state of any
properties that were changed by the user—these are known as archive file properties.
