Server option to switch mouse2/mouse3

Post by MyKillK »

Apple Remote Desktop switches the positions of mouse2/mouse3, so it's necessary to have a 3 button mouse to right-click.

Singlue button mice or laptop users are unable to right click. If there was a server option to switch it, it would be a big help to ARD users.

Mouse button switching is supported by the veiwer.

Server
--> viewer1
--> viewer2

As both viewers can have a different mouse setting, it is logical the that button switching is a viewer option and not a server option.

If the Server set the mouse, viewer1 and viewer2 need to have the same mouse settings.

I'm missing something ?

Well,

Apple Remote Desktop is a viewer for OS X.

I'm using ARD to control my Windows machine. You are right in saying that it should be a viewer-side option, but since ARD has no such option, I have no luck there.
