Using Keyboard Pass-through

depending on the Screen mode of the Video Viewer window.
• If a Video Viewer window is in Full Screen mode, all keystrokes and keyboard combinations
except
Ctrl-Alt-Del
• If a Video Viewer window is in Regular Desktop mode, Keyboard Pass-through mode can be
used to control whether the remote server or local computer recognizes certain keystrokes or
keystroke combinations.
Keyboard pass-through must be specified using the Session Options dialog box. When enabled,
keyboard pass-through sends all keystrokes and keystroke combinations except
remote server being viewed when the Video Viewer window is active. When the local desktop is
active, keystrokes and keystroke combinations entered by the user affect the local computer.
NOTE: The Ctrl-Alt-Delete keyboard combination can be sent only to a remote server by using a macro.
NOTE: The Japanese keyboard ALT-Han/Zen keystroke combination is always sent to a remote server
regardless of the Screen mode or keyboard pass-through setting.
