I would like to suggest something to possibly include in new versions, or if this available, could someone give me instructions how to do it.

To be able to lock a students workstation for THEM, but then being able to control that station.

Eg. I can lock their station so that the PADLOCK picture appears, but then be able to control it as if I was taking control, (my screen not showing the padlock, just the normal desktop etc.)

hope you'll be able to impliment this. (as I said if it's a part of a current version, please make me aware)

Thank's for your time

Dan

In otherwords you would not want them to see what you are doing and have them locked out.

I'm not sure if this is going to be possible Sad What's transmitted during a [b]Watch[/b] is what's shown on the students screen.

The only option you have is to use the 'Lockout' command whilst watching the remote screen to lock the remote mouse and keyboard.

I will look into the possibility of turning off the monitor, but there's no way to stop the student turning it on again and you don't see the lock message.

Can't you just take out the tick boxes in the "lock message" tab in configuration and then take control of the users machine?
