Control all your PCs from a single PC

[Hans Krohn]

Hans,
Thanks for the reply.
That what I was scared of.
Is there any way to stop it minimising fs when you move off the main pc window? I'm assuming fs is only pausing because of the task switch?

Wollo:

the pausing, yes.
Actually, I am quite happy about FS minimizing when I go off screen with synergy, because it minimizes in 3 windows (and reopens them just like they were before). If I do an Alt Enter, I go back to all windows on top of each other and I have to undock them again...

Anyways, once my cockpit is up and running, there is no need for the mouse anymore. I try not to touch it, but to do all tasks during the flight by flipping switches, turning knobs etc. - that's why I spend all those 1000s of h building my cockpit, after all

Regards,
Hans

that, fair enough. I'm not quite at the switches stage yet. I'll give it a try later this week. I'll let you know how it goes.

THere is another option called VNC http://www.realvnc.com/ THis is what I use for setting the sim up and working on it. I have 1 keyboard and 1 mouse and it uses the monitor hoked up to the machine you are sitting at so ther eis no looking through the MIP or trying to read that little tiny CDU screen. Works good and it is free.

I too, am using synergy. In fact, I have it running across operating systems ( WinXP home-Win98 ) with no issues.
