Clipboard Enhancement

We have revamped our clipboard workflow to make it easier for agents to copy content from the customers screen to theirs (agents) and vice versa. Once the agent enables clipboard, a small popup screen will appear to show what content is copied and allow the agent to copy it to their own machine.

Zoom to Original Size Enhancement

Once remote control/screen annotation and zoom to original size are enabled, the zoom will focus on wherever the mouse is placed. When remote control is enabled, simply move the mouse to the corner of the screen to beginning panning.This provides a simpler workflow for agents who have different resolution monitors compared to their customer.

Start with Remote Control or Admin

Agents will now have the ability to start with remote control or admin at the beginning of the session. If enabled, the session will start with these permissions granted and use any admin level tools at their disposal. On the customers side; the customer will run the application, a consent screen will be shown for remote control or admin, if the customer has local admin rights and allows consent the session will start. If the customer does not have local admin rights, a windows dialog screen will be shown to enter username/password of the admin group.

To active this feature: Sign in to console.screenmeet.com as an Administrator, then go to Organization -> settings and policies 

Report a bug

Agents can report a bug during an active session with a customer. Click on the Report a Bug on the bottom of the sidebar to begin a service desk ticket with the ScreenMeet customer support team. A tutorial on submitting a bug report can be viewed here.

Screenshot button is available for both Windows and MacOS

MacOS Catalina Workflow

We have added instructions to do so, making it easier for the user to navigate to the appropriate pages. If the permission has not been set, after the user clicks allow on the dialog screen, a popup window will appear with instructions and a button to navigate to the appropriate settings panel. The same workflow has been added for remote control as well.

This feature is for users that do not have local admin access and need someone to approve them to run admin level commands.

Clicking on a hotkey from the popup will trigger the action on the user’s machine. If you forget what each hotkey will trigger, simply hover over the button and it will inform you of the action.

Run Commands

Agents can run commands or scripts through the viewer. After the agent has selected Remote Control, the option for Run Commands will appear. Clicking this will open up a pop up window with the run command options.

PowerShell: Use PowerShell instead of Command Prompt when running the commands
Run as Admin: Run PowerShell or Command Prompt as administrator
Keep cmd terminal open after running: After running your command it will leave the window open so you can see the output. Default is for the command to run in the background, enabling this will leave the window open.
Run command on “Enter” key press: Toggling this will allow agents to execute commands after pressing enter rather than clicking Execute Command
