Remote clipboard

During a View session, you can copy the content of the clipboard between the Tutor and Student machines.

The Clipboard section on the Home tab of the View window ribbon provides the following options:

Send: Used when copying from the Tutor to a Student and using the {Edit}{Cut/Copy} menu option.

Retrieve: Used when copying from the Student to the Tutor and using the {Edit}{Cut/Copy} menu option.

Auto Clipboard: When enabled, it provides the quickest method for copying data. Use the shortcut keys (Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V) to automatically copy to and from the clipboard at both the Tutor and Student machines.

  1. View the required Student.

  2. Open appropriate applications on the Student and Tutor machines.
