Interface Tips and Shortcuts There are a number of features of the Remote Desktop interface which make it particularly flexible and powerful. The following lists a few built-in shortcuts to features which can make using Remote Desktop more productive. Computers can be selected from any window Any computer in any window-report windows, task windows, computer lists, observe windows-can be a target for some task. For example, if you are observing 10 computer screens and need to send a text message to one, select the screen with a single click and then choose Interact > Send Text Message. Likewise, if you get a software report on 50 computers and notice that one of the computers is missing some vital piece of software, you can drop that software onto the selected computer within the report window. Treating all windows as possible computer selection lists for tasks may save you lots of time switching between the Remote Desktop window and other windows as you accomplish your work.
