# and resolution of screens by PCS
I would like to know in report on how many screens are resolution there are for the computers in Screenconnect.
External Logging
A syslog style logging method to send chat, session connection, and possibly session commands to an external server for auditing.
Bluetooth / Hardware keyboard support for iOS devices (iPad/iPhones)
From CW-7620136:
Would like to be able to use a hardware keyboard, such as a Bluetooth keyboard, on iPad or iPhone devices without having to tap the keyboard icon in the app first, and seeing the on-screen keyboard.
Send Win+L to host
I would like a way to send the Win+L command (lock PC) to the host.
Automate should uninstall SC when you choose redeploy
Occasionally we've found that windows cumulative updates break screenconnect... or something does. We'll find an agent where the service simply won't start and I'm pretty certain it occurs after a monthly update occurs.
In any case, the solution, from automate, is to uninstall SC and then click on Redeploy.
I'd like to suggest that, if Automate sees that SC is not running, then the reploy function should uninstall the agent and then deploy it.
While I realise this is an Automate function, it touches both products and its only necessary due to an issue with SC failing, so I'm filling out the request here.
Add support for a Lock screen button - windows-l
When connected to an agent you can ctrl-del-sup with a single click. However when you go to disconnect I find that I often want to leave the machine with the console locked (ctrl-alt-sup>enter or windows+L) and this requires sending another ctrl-alt-sup and clicking on lock from the menu.
I'd like to suggest that either a button be added to send windows-L or that the close session button be replaced by two buttons.
- One to just disconnect
- one to lock the session and disconnect
Or maybe generalize something where you can have a button send a key sequence of your choosing.
Obviously you can't just type windows-l or ctrl-alt-sup> enter as this would lock your local desktop.
Store agent version number and last connected date in metadata
I'd like to suggest that two pieces of data be added to a nodes 'permanent' metadata
- Agent version
- last connected date
both of these bits of data are purged by the housekeeping jobs and diappear after X days. If you have agents permanantly connected - like Automate Agents - then agents which are offline for a couple of months lose this information
Fix confusing DUO login interface for Control
Control prompts for DUO pin and then send a push to the associated user's phone app. You must then click allow on the app and then click next on the Control interface with a blank passcode.
We would like the option to actually select PUSH and the push to go through without the extra confusing pin prompt. Or be able to put in pin if we so choose.
Better Linux Headless Support & Docker Clients & SSH
Provide better support for Linux headless clients. We are installing on more and more linux systems with 100% of them being headless.
We are noticing multiple issues around switching sessions and or viewing the screen.
Idea A - Embed a native SSH client into the screenconnect client.
Idea B - Along with idea A - Have the screenconnect client have an option to tunnel traffic and allow 3rd party apps to connect over a localhost port. This would provide functionality with the users SSH keys and other stuff until the screenconnect team can implement certain features.
USB Smartcard Passthrough
Please add USB Smartcard Passthrough to allow authentication in windows environments that require a Smartcard for login.
