Auto scroll width
Auto scroll width can be defined in the range of 20% to 50%. This range defines the area where the cursor can
be moved next to the current location without updating the host window. As soon as it moves out this range, the
host window is updated thus again centering the cursor in mid of the auto scroll width area.
Enable Magnifier
In case the this checkbox is ticked, the scraped desktop is displayed in the host window of the RemotePointer
application. In case the mark is removed from the checkbox, the host window turns black and does not show the
scraped desktop.
Behavior on Close
If Iconize Application is selected, the File menu shows both entries, Exit and Shutdown. Selecting Exit, the
application is hidden, but still running, and can be activated again by double clicking on its icon in the system
tray. Shutdown closes the application.
If Shutdown Application on Close is selected, the File menu only shows Exit, and this command then not only
hides, but closes the application.
The same applies for the "close" button on the window border: In case Iconize application is
selected, clicking this button doesnot shutdown the application, but iconizes it in the
system tray.
The application can be iconized during controlling (Hide while controlling) or when control is released again
(Iconize Application on Release Control). In case it is hidden while controlling, be sure to remember the keys
for releasing control and/or disconnect: they are no longer displayed….
Squid mode
In squid mode, when moving the local cursor to an edge of the local desktop, automatically
control is taken on the host which is assigned to this edge!
Up to four different hosts can be assigned – one for each edge.
Enter the name of the desired host and the password which has been given during the configuration of
ProServer application:
In case you want to disable squid mode, remove the mark from the checkbox.
To prevent the user from unintentionally taking control on the host, the time interval can be specified for taking
and releasing control (hover delay connect, hover delay disconnect (from 0 to 5000ms).
If squid mode is activated, and if the mouse is moved to one of the edges and stays there the time as defined in
hover delay connect, the mouse will "move to the host".
If the mouse is moved to one of the edges of the host and stays there the time as defined in hover delay discon-
nect, the mouse will leave the host and "come back" without the need of pressing F12 (assumed: default key
assignment for connect/disconnect).
