That could be helpful in many cases.

    Given the form factor of a Smartphone, I will review how this
    should be implemented.

    I am thinking about something like this.

    When any of the special keys is "pressed" with the Keys
    menu, change the title bar to something like "Ctrl Down, Shift
    Down." When none of them is down, use the remote server
    name. You will enable this feature with an item under the
    Option menu.

    How is that?

    Good but in fullscreen mode we don't have the title bar. You
    mean that I can't "press" Ctrl or Alt keys in fullscreen
    mode. I need to return to window mode. Hm, that's right but
    that could be great if I could use commands in the menu
    without switching back to window mode. Is it possible to
    show the menu in fullscreen mode? If it is possible without
    too much code rewriting I'll submit this as a feature request.

    There are two separate issues.

    First for the indication of Ctrl, Alt, or Shift pressed, I can put
    it in the display area. It takes more time but I don't need
    need to overload the title bar. What's your view?

    For "use commands in the menu without switching back to
    window mode," please submit a separate request to track the
    discussion. I am think about overloading the keypad buttons
    when a menu option is enabled.

    I think about icons in the screen corner for key status
    displaying when it's "pressed".

    I will design how status information is shown and let you
    know.

    Now that I have launched the server-side scaling and single
    window stuff, I will design how status should be shown.
