Secondary PC temporarily disable

And swapping Primary PC?

New to Multiplicity, using the Trial version to try out, and pretty good so far, simple as I like, couple of useful advanced features, just a few bits I want to ask/suggest.

I use KMs with my laptop (Win7), 2PCs (Win7, Vista Ultimate [being upgraded soon] and sometimes join my Tablet (Win10) (All x64)

Is there a way to 'lock' out secondary PCs?

As I mainly use my Vista PC as Primary, I sometimes don't need to access my other 3 Computers, but still need/want them running, I would like to see a way where I can stop the KM from swapping, so I am only controlling the primary, or just the primary and laptop, or Primary, Laptop and Tablet, etcetc, I can't find a way to 'lock' the KM in the current version.

What would be nice is something like Tickboxes in the right click menu in taskbar, so I can just untick a machine when I don't want to control it.

 

Moving onto the second question, I noticed when I needed to swap my primary to the laptop, I had to sign up for a new trial.

If and when I purchase Multiplicity 3 KVM, will I just be able to swap my Primary as I please, just inputting the 1 Licence into each as I need it? ( I don't mind if I have to input the licence every time, as I mostly stick to the Vista PC Primary, but maybe once a week or fortnight I need to swap to the Laptop as Primary)

 

Thanks in advance.

First question: You can remove the PC's from the grid quick enough, which may be what you're looking for. They'll still remain on the side of the grid window for later.

Second question: You can deactivate the primary, then activate the secondary you want to be the primary. You can do this via the About Page.
