Reducing Mouse Cursor Flickering

If the video driver on the RCS software client machine does not support
DirectDraw® and the DirectDraw option in the RCS software has been
activated, the mouse cursor will flicker on the screen. The RCS software factory
default has DirectDraw disabled. If the video driver on the client system
supports DirectDraw and the additional performance is desired, follow the
instructions below to enable DirectDraw.

To enable or disable DirectDraw:

1

In the Explorer window, select Tools - Options.

2

Click to enable or disable the DirectDraw check box.

3

Click OK.

4

Restart the RCS software.

Viewing Multiple Servers Using the Scan Mode

The Viewer allows you to simultaneously view multiple servers through the
Thumbnail Viewer of the Scan mode. This view contains a series of thumbnail
frames, each containing a small, scaled, non-interactive version of a server's
screen image. The server name displays below each thumbnail as well as the
status indicator.
