Display Modes

When you connect to a PCoIP session, the Software Client for macOS shows your remote desktop as one or more displays. The number of displays it shows is constrained by your local system's available monitors (and the PCoIP protocol itself, which supports up to four monitors).

Reset Virtual Desktop

The following section outlines how to reset a saved desktop in the Anyware Client. You can reset to a virtual desktop by following the steps outlined below:

  1. Click the configure button and select Edit from the popup menu.

  2. Click NEXT on the initial saved connection screen.

  3. Enter your access credentials and click SAVE.

Configuring Wacom Tablets

This section outlines how to configure your Wacom tablet through the Anyware Client session. There are two available features within the Anyware Client that can be used to configure the monitor display and orientation.

USB Connection Instructions

Before you carry out the Wacom tablet monitor configurations below, you must connect to the device by following the instructions outlined in the Connecting to USB Devices section.

A/V Lock

A/V Lock

PCoIP Ultra A/V Lock provides improved video playback, reducing the difference in delays between the audio and video channels and smoothing frame playback on the client. This feature introduces a small lag in user interaction responsiveness when enabled. When audio is playing, the video frames will be delayed to align with the audio soundtrack.

Using Mission Control

Mission Control in PCoIP Sessions

macOS provides a number of methods for activating Mission Control. Some of these methods are reserved by the Software Client for macOS to allow local use of Mission Control, and others are forwarded to the remote desktop, where the remote macOS system can use them.

Connecting USB Devices

Connecting USB Devices

Remote desktops can use USB devices that are attached to the client, using a process called redirection. USB devices are not automatically redirected to the remote desktop; they must be specifically connected to the session.
