Abstract
A Remote Display Protocol (RDP) server, such as a hand-held mobile device, may control various aspects of the RDP client, such as a large display. For example, if a user wishes to use a RDP system to project the display from their laptop computer onto a large-screen display mounted in a conference room, embodiments would allow the user to control aspects of the remote client such as location, size, and full-screen treatment.
