The cursor control page allows manipulation of ICE’s on-screen cursor from a remote device.
Usage
Click or tap the “Start casting” button to begin controlling the cursor.
If you’re using a mouse and keyboard, your mouse will be locked to the Control Panel window, and all further mouse movement and keyboard interactions will be forwarded to ICE. Press [Escape] to unlock your mouse and stop controlling the ICE cursor.
If you’re using a touchscreen, a touchpad will be shown. You can use this like a laptop’s standard touchpad. Press the “Keyboard” (⌨️) button to show your device’s on-screen keyboard if required.
