Is there a quick way to switch between a browser in the remote desktop, and a browser on my local machine?

0

I'm working alot in a remote desktop environment. However, I ifnd myself needing to switch back-&-forth too much between the remote desktop, and my PDF viewer on my local machine. And I can't use Alt-Tab or any keyboard shortcut(that I know of)

does anyone know of a way to get around that? Or how to easily switch beween the remote desktop environment, and a locally running program?

many thanks

Print the pdf out. Second monitor. Alt-tab. Use the windows+arrow keys to tile the windows evenly so you can see both at the same time.

Lots of potential answers for this, depending on your requirements.
