Thanks both - here's how it works:
1. CoScreen captures each of your window to be shared individually.
2. It sends them across in a combined video feed per user with window positions & sizes.
3. On the receiving end, it creates actual native windows which are filled with the video streams of the corresponding windows. That way they look and feel like actual local windows. E.g. you can move & resize them like any other native windows.
4. Whenever you click or type into a remote window, the input is send across to the origin of the window and applied there.
- JoeSmithson 7y agoThis is so good! How does it work with selecting text and copy-pasting? In the Sublime Text example, can Bob overwrite Alice's clipboard.
- coscreen 7y agoWe're still figuring this out and will probably get inspired from remote desktop solutions. But reach out to us if you have specific ideas
- nicoburns 7y agoIf everyone could have separate clipboards, but still copy from and paste into each other's windows, that would be ideal. Also: this would be a major feature request from me. The ability for me to paste code into someone's else text editor (or copy out an error message) when I'm helping them would be a major productivity boost.
- coscreen 7y agoWe hear you and will prioritize this. Some remote desktop and virtual desktop solutions enable you to choose local or remote clipboards through a slight tweak of the traditional/locally applied shortcuts (e.g. Command + V), we'll check this out as well.
