GenLab/Modeling/Adobe Pools
You can control certain aspects of your desktop using the menu bar at the top of your eLumin desktop instance. From right to left as marked on the below screen-cap:
- You can Log-Off the desktop from the Profile menu.
- You can launch the desktop into fullscreen mode (press ESC to exit).
- You can adjust the settings on your virtual desktop connection (including mounting your local microphone).
- You can copy and paste content from your local computer into/from the desktop.
- You can mount and access UMBC provisioned cloud storage, including Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive.
GenStaff Pool
The GenStaff pool is different from our other pools, it utilizes an application portal rather than a full desktop experience. Upon log-in you are presented with a variety of applications that you can launch individually.
Once an application is launched, the menu bar at the top of your eLumin desktop instance, like in the GenLab/Modeling/Adobe pools, is exactly the same. Take Microsoft Word, for example.
If you wish to launch another application, use the 4-square icon on the far-left of your screen an choose an application from the drop-down menu.
