Using touch gestures to control the remote device

Mouse interaction mode (Android and iOS)

Your finger moves the mouse cursor rather than clicking where you touch, as you might expect with a touchscreen, giving you precise control of a remote device.

Gesture	Action	Explanation
	Zoom	Pinch two fingers together to zoom out, or apart to zoom in.
	Mouse move	Place one finger on the screen and drag to position the mouse cursor (offset from under your finger so you can always see it).
	Left click	Tap with one finger to click the left mouse button at the point the mouse cursor is positioned (not your finger).
	Double left click	Tap twice with one finger to click the left mouse button at the point the mouse cursor is positioned (not your finger).
	Right click	Tap with two fingers to click the right mouse button at the point the mouse cursor is positioned (not your finger).
	Middle click	Tap with three fingers to click the middle mouse button at the point the mouse cursor is positioned (not your finger).
	Scroll	Place two fingers on the screen and drag slowly up or down to scroll the current application.
	Drag-and-drop or select text	Tap twice, hold the second tap, and drag to move a desktop object (such as a dialog box or icon), or select a specific body of text.

Touch panel interaction mode (iOS only)

This mode can be enabled by tapping the i icon on the toolbar and changing the Interaction setting from Mouse to Touch panel.

Your finger interacts with the remote screen exactly where you tap.

Gesture	Action	Explanation
	Zoom	Pinch two fingers together to zoom out, or apart to zoom in.
	Left click	Tap with one finger to click the left mouse button at that point.
	Double left click	Tap twice with one finger to click the left mouse button twice at that point.

	Drag-and-drop or select text	Tap, hold and drag to move a desktop object (such as a dialog box or icon), or select a body of text.
	Pan	Place two fingers on the screen and drag to pan.

Using the app toolbar

The app toolbar provides access to several useful features when accessing a remote device.

Using the virtual keyboard

Tap    to open the virtual keyboard, above which a scrolling key bar containing function and other special keys is displayed. Double tap a modifier key (for example, Shift or Ctrl) to hold that key down. Some keys, such as Scroll Lock, are not available.

Note: If a hardware keyboard is detected, the virtual keyboard is not displayed. However, tapping the keyboard icon will still open the scrolling key bar.

Using mouse mode

Tap to open mouse mode. Virtual left, middle, and right mouse buttons, and a vertical scroll bar, are superimposed on the display, to provide an alternative to gestures.
