By default, the Session Manager window displays your active sessions in a single window in a tabbed view. Each host computer to which you are connected is represented by a tab so that you can quickly switch between active sessions. The Home tab lets you go back to the pcAnywhere Manager window (for example, to connect to another computer). You can change the default settings to display each session in a separate Session Manager window. See "Changing how active sessions appear in the Session Manager" on page 61. You can switch between active sessions in the Session Manager window, but you can view only one session at a time. To view multiple sessions at a time, you can use Symantec pcAnywhere CrossPlatform. See "About Symantec pcAnywhere CrossPlatform" on page 233.
