    Hi

    I would like to be able to use the remote mouse input when the remote screen blanked, rather than the client mouse as I have a wireless mouse on the remote and prefer it to the clunky laptop touchpad and it is still in range when I’m on the laptop.

    Use blank screen option disables the mouse by default with no option to override, it there an option in the config files to override this?

    This is the first time we have received such a request: to blank the screen but not the mouse attached to the computer whose screen you just blanked 🙂

    The non-disabling of the mouse is not a configurable option. The majority of our users use remote screen blanking as a security feature, to prevent people in the vicinity of the computer from seeing and interacting with the computer. Although splitting the mouse input from the blanking of the screen can probably be done, it would create confusion in our honest opinion and is not what most NoMachine users expect.
