NX client shortcuts

Which key combinations does NX adopt?
If you want to switch back from a fullscreen session to your native OS desktop, you can click on the ‘magic pixel’ on the upper right edge of your screen.

Keystrokes available in NX 3.x

Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Esc to get rid of a not responding session

Ctrl + Alt + T to terminate a session

Ctrl + Alt + F to switch to fullscreen/windowed

Ctrl + Alt + M to minimize or maximize fullscreen window

Ctrl + Alt + arrow keys to viewport navigation

Ctrl + Alt + keypad arrow keys to viewport navigation (Note: this action
is performed also by keeping Ctrl + Alt pressed and dragging the
content of the main window by the pointer)

Ctrl + Alt + R to switch “auto-resize/viewport” mode. The agent starts
in auto-resize mode, so users can resize the desktop simply by resizing
the main window. In viewport mode, resizing the main window doesn’t
make the desktop resize itself, but users can navigate the desktop by
moving the viewport (Note: the auto-resize feature will be available on
Windows only starting from NX 4.0.0)

Ctrl + Alt + E to toggle the lazy encoding

Ctrl + Alt + J to force a drawable’s synchronization, in order to attempt
a fix for a visualization problem

Alt + F4 when the window manager is present, it allows you to suspend
or terminate a session

Ctrl + Alt + K  enable/disable the catching of Alt+Tab and Print Screen
keys
