Desktop Connect: Support Bluetooth Keyboard

Mark Rackers
suggested this on June 11, 2010 12:37

When connecting to a RDP client from my iPAD my bluetooth keyboard doesn't work by default. If I click on the keyboard icon it shows a black half-screen (where the keyboard normally would be). It would be nice if the app automatically detected the existence of a bluetooth keyboard and lets the user use it in a session without the need to activate.

[This is now supported in the latest release of Desktop Connect.  Thank you!]

I would like to second this.  It would be great to be able to type to my remote machine using the bluetooth keyboard and not having half the screen covered by a big black area.

This would be my number one new feature request. Otherwise I'm quite pleased with this software.

Thanks so much for fixing this in your last update! 

The only question I'd have is now that 3 finger swipe up seems to trigger the keyboard (or at least the buttons when I'm on my bluetooth) is there a way to go full screen *without* having the keyboard on?  The two seem tied together now.

Thanks again!  So glad to know you folks are listening to us!  :-)

Never mind.  Reading is fundamental I see in the new help docs that a 4 finger swipe will now show and hide the top nav.  Beautiful!
