Description

 

Groups or folders are used to organize your sessions in a logical way. It's possible to create groups and sub groups, which Remote Desktop Manager will automatically sort alphabetically.

 

Groups can be created in two different ways:

 

Via the session properties
From the session tree view

 

Creating Groups via the Session Properties

 

Groups can be specified in the session properties. Simply fill this field with your desired group name, and Remote Desktop Manager will generate the corresponding tree structure. Use the backslash ( \ ) to create a sub group.

For example, "Office\Canada\Montreal" will create three nodes in the tree:

 

Office
Canada
Montreal

Creating Groups from the Tree View

 

By right clicking the root node of a group or an existing session, a context menu appears allowing you to create a new group.

Add group from the session context menu
 

The "Add Group" dialog box will then prompt you to enter the name of the group, and choose its parent group.

Once a group is created, you can add a session by using the menu, or by dragging its node directly to the content of the group.
