The Remote Console window (see Section 2.3) always tries to show the remote screen with its
optimal size. That means it will adapt its size to the size of the remote screen initially and after
the screen resolution of the remote screen has been changed. However, you can always resize
the Remote Console window in your local window system as usual.

Warning!
In difference to the remote host system, the Remote Console window on
your local window system is just one window among others. In order to
make keyboard and mouse work, your Remote Console window must have
the local input focus.

2.4.1 Remote Console Control Bar

The upper part of the Remote Console window contains a control bar. Using its elements you
can see the state of the Remote Console and adjust the local Remote Console settings. A
description for each control follows.

Remote Console Control Bar


Ctrl+Alt+Delete – Special button key to send the “Control Alt Delete”
key combination to the remote system (see also section 3.5.1 for
defining new button keys).


Auto Adjust button - If the video display is of bad quality or distorted
in some way, press this button and wait a few seconds while the IP
console tries to detect the video mode of VGA port to the controlled
host and adjust itself for the best possible video quality.


Sync mouse button - Activates the mouse synchronization process.
Choose this option in order to synchronize the local with the remote
mouse cursor. This is especially necessary when using accelerated
mouse settings on the host system. In general, there is no need to
change mouse settings on the host.


Single/Double mouse mode – Switches between the Single Mouse
Mode (where only the remote mouse pointer is visible) and the Double
Mouse Mode (where remote and local mouse pointers are visible and
need to be synchronized). Single mouse mode is only available if using
SUN JVM 1.4.2 or higher.
