20090210811 | DRAGGING AND DROPPING OBJECTS BETWEEN LOCAL AND REMOTE MODULES - The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for dragging and dropping objects between local and remote modules. Terminal server components simulate the functionality of participants in drag and drag operations to facilitate the dragging and dropping of objects between local and remote modules and vice versa. The terminal server components interact locally to communicate with modules participating in a drag and drop operation. The terminal server components also send messages over a terminal server session to relay appropriate drag and drop information to corresponding terminal server components on the other end of the terminal server session. | 08-20-2009 |
20090235177 | MULTI-MONITOR REMOTE DESKTOP ENVIRONMENT USER INTERFACE - Representation of multiple displays of a remote computing system within a local display of a local computing system. This permits a user at the local computing system to interface with the remote computing system through the representation of the remote displays that are represented at the local display. The local computer receives representation of the display state or content for multiple remote displays associated with the remote computing system. The local computer then causes representations of those remote displays to be rendered on the local display. The content of the active display of the remote computing system is caused to be emphasized in some manner at the local display, while the content of the inactive display(s) of the remote computing system is rendered in a deemphasized manner. | 09-17-2009 |
20090282359 | VIRTUAL DESKTOP VIEW SCROLLING - Example embodiments of the present disclosure are related to scrolling the view of a virtual desktop on a client. The client can be in communication with a server that has a display driver. The server can be configured to transmit signals indicative of images to the client and the client can be configured draw the images in a virtual desktop. The client can be configured to render a view of the virtual desktop that includes a portion of the virtual desktop; track user input; and pan the view in response to the user input. | 11-12-2009 |
20100228871 | TEAR-FREE REMOTE DESKTOP PROTOCAL (RDP) DISPLAY - Systems, methods and computer readable media are disclosed for reducing the tearing of display data received across a communications network. A server determines at least two logically related drawing orders in an order heap and warps those orders with a begin marker and an end marker. It sends those wrapped orders across the communications network to a client. The client receives those orders and renders them to a shadow buffer. When the client processes the end marker, it moves the drawing orders in the shadow buffer to a client display surface. | 09-09-2010 |
20110214063 | EFFICIENT NAVIGATION OF AND INTERACTION WITH A REMOTED DESKTOP THAT IS LARGER THAN THE LOCAL SCREEN - Techniques are disclosed for the efficient navigation of and interaction with a remoted desktop that is larger than the local viewing area. In an embodiment, a client displays both a portion of the remoted desktop in its native size, as well as a “mini-map”—a scaled-down view of the entire remoted desktop that may be used for navigation of the natively displayed portion of the remoted desktop. In an embodiment, the natively displayed portion of the remoted desktop is indicated in the mini-map. In an embodiment, use of a computer mouse and/or multi-touch gestures is used as input to navigate the natively displayed portion of the remoted desktop. | 09-01-2011 |
20130031482 | Multi-Touch Remoting - An invention is disclosed for using multi-touch input in a remote presentation session. In embodiments of the invention, a client computer is configured to locally receive both mouse and keyboard input, and multi-touch input. Where the client computer receives mouse or keyboard input, it sends this input to a remote presentation session server via a TCP connection. Where the client computer receives multi-touch input, it sends this input to the remote presentation session server via a UDP connection. The server computer processes input received from the client computer, via either the TCP or UDP connection, and sends the client a graphical result of performing processing corresponding to that received input. | 01-31-2013 |
20130328779 | REMOTE SESSION CONTROL USING MULTI-TOUCH INPUTS - Accessing and controlling a remote desktop of a remote computing system using a multi-touch display of a local computing system. The remote desktop is displayed on the multi-touch display. Upon detecting a user contact with the multi-touch display when the display is not engaged as a trackpad, the multi-touch display is engaged as a trackpad; and the user contact is assigned as a cursor pointer for controlling the multi-touch display as a trackpad. In accordance with some embodiments described herein, left and right pointer controls (e.g., left mouse button and right mouse button) controls may be emulated also. This remote desktop technique allows multi-touch displays to be used to manipulate remote desktops, even for those that do not support multi-touch semantics, interaction techniques, or metaphors. | 12-12-2013 |
