Thanks!
I changed the settings shortcut to Alt-F and it’s working well so far.
A minor suggestion would be to add an option to auto-hide the settings when the NoMachine window gets focused.
I.e. my current workflow:
– Do something inside the remote session.
– Press Alt-F (it opens the settings and uncaptures the keyboard from the remote session).
– Press Super+X to switch to another Ubuntu workspace on the current machine (one I’m remoting from).
– Do some work there.
– Press Super+Z to switch to the workspace where NoMachine is running (which focuses the NoMachine window).
– Press Esc to close the settings in the NoMachine window.An option to auto-hide the settings when the NoMachine window is refocused could slightly simplify the switching (last step).
This is a minor tweak though and it’s already working well, but still something to consider.
Hi, thanks for your reply! I appreciate you looking into this.
The glasses offer a relatively crisp view if someone has perfect vision. I have slight myopia, but I can still see most things, though I may need to squint a bit. Prescription lenses for these glasses are available, but I haven’t tried them yet. Personally, I find them less tiring than a regular monitor because their focus distance is farther away (I’m not exactly sure what that distance is, or if it’s at infinity). My eyes tend to get tired when looking at close-up objects (like a monitor), but not when looking at distant objects—or in this case, when the lenses shift the focus further away.
They’re also quite flexible, as I can use them in any position—even while reclining, lying down, or walking. I can quickly switch them off to see what’s in front of me, so this freedom of movement makes them less tiring as well.
However, if someone plans to purchase these, I’d advise looking at various options first. There’s the Viture One model, which I haven’t tried, but it’s worth comparing. Also, note that for Xreal, their arms tend to crack after intense usage, although this has reportedly been improved in their latest revision.
Thanks for sharing the detailed info! And you’ve given me an idea: I could use a clamp to keep Fn always pressed if I can’t find a software solution to lock it. I’m looking forward to the improvements you mentioned, as they’ll make using DeX remotely a breeze.
