How to use AppStream on Mac

On Mac, AppStream supports the following Operating Systems:
 

• Mac OS X 10.8.x and later.

To use keyboard shortcuts on a Mac:
You will need to map keys using the Keyboard options under the Preferences icon. The options will need to be set with each login. Use a 'two finger click' to mimic a PC right-click.

The Preferences for Mac users also contain Keyboard options for mapping keys to Windows. The recommended setting for Mac is “Use Command as remote Control Key".

Alternative to using the two-finger click option in Mac:

If you don't like the two-finger click option, you can set a corner of the trackpad as a designated right-click button instead. To do this, go back to System Settings Trackpad and open the Secondary click drop-down menu. This time, choose Click in Bottom Right Corner or Click in Bottom Left Corner. Now, instead of using the Control key or using two fingers, you can simply click the corner of the trackpad you chose, and the right-click menu will appear.

Full Screen for Mac:

You may prefer to use apps on AppStream in “Full Screen” for better visibility. Click the green “Maximize” button to enter full-screen mode. The AppStream toolbar will remain at the top of the window. Click Control + Command + F to exit full screen.


 

The Full screen icon in the toolbar expands the current apps to full screen mode as well. 

For example, the following monitor displays the View app in the browser.


If you click the Full screen icon, the View app will fill the entire monitor. To exit full screen, press ESC on the keyboard.

 
Note: Keyboard shortcuts will work for full screen mode. Full screen mode can also be used with Dual monitor mode.
