Right after you get connected to a remote desktop or application  the remote desktop mouse will be available.

Take a look on the table below to see how you can control the remote mouse through the mobile screen.

The third column specifies the mobile gesture that corresponds to the described mouse action.

 

Moving the mouse around

In order to move the remote desktop mouse you should drag your finger softly touching the mobile screen. You don't need to drag your finger exactly on the mouse draw position in order to make it move. Wherever the mouse is, it will start moving.

Sometimes the mouse is hidden. In that case, keep dragging the finger towards different directions until you can see it on the screen.
