10.6: Switch away from screen sharing without moving mouse
Authored by: Mac Berry on Oct 23, '09 08:43:22AM

If you have one of the newer Apple keyboards (works on my Apple aluminium keyboard, and my MacBook Pro unibody), press the Expose button (on the F3 key), then select the local window you want. That function isn't sent to the remote machine.

Same works with the Dashboard button (on the F4 key), but NOT with the actual F keys assigned to Expose in system preferences; those ARE sent to the remote machine.

The exposé option works great! Thanks for that tip. Had I known about that, I would have used it as the original hint.
