On a computer that has Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003, or Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0 installed, a layered window is not displayed in the remote client session
Consider the following scenario. On a computer that has Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003 or Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0 installed, or on a Windows 2000-based computer that has Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 installed, you follow these steps:
- You use the Remote Control tool that is part of the Remote Tools collection to connect to a remote client session.
- On an application in the remote client session, you access a layered window through the Remote Control Client Viewer window.
- You try to perform mouse actions on the layered window.
The layered window does not respond to the mouse actions. Also, the layered window is not displayed in the remote client session.
Note The following examples illustrate the implementation of layered windows in various applications:
- Tool tips displayed in Windows Explorer and in other applications
- The Microsoft Office Button that is part of the 2007 Office Fluent user interface
To work around this issue, use the keyboard shortcuts or commands that the application supports to move through the menus and the other interactive windows of the application.
Even if the layered window is not displayed correctly in the Remote Control Client Viewer window, keyboard shortcuts or commands are passed through the layered window.
See the Help files or the product documentation for the appropriate application to determine which keyboard shortcuts or commands are supported.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0 Standard Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
