Chat& - Screen Control

[joeflashTO]

Is the screen control available in the latest LCCS SDK just like the screen control which is in the http://connectnow.acrobat.com product? Specifically, while screen control is active, is dual cursor control enabled in the LCCS SDK version just like in the connectnow product? In other words, whoever is moving their mouse over the area is moving the cursor?

And a second question: when the share publisher hovers over a web link, their cursor changes, as it should because they're hosting the share session. But when a share subscriber/controller hovers over a web link, the cursor doesn't change, at least not in the ConnectNow product.

In an LCCS app, how would you change the subscriber/controller's cursor to indicate to them that they are now hovering over a link, to "synchronize" the publisher & subscriber cursor icons?

ScreenShareSubscriber.startControlling() is how a client asks for control.

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to change the cursor based on what is

seen on the remote screen.

hope that helps,

Thanks Nigel, found it in the 10.1 SDK docs. Now that I've played with it for a few days, I am happy to see that the screen control allows for cursor sharing just like in Adobe ConnectNow.

If I could make a request for the next version of the connect add-in, enable the screen control feature to change the controller cursor to sync up with that of the publisher, so that in a co-browsing situation, the controller knows when they have rolled over a web link in the publisher's screen.
