+\textbf{Default Inline Menu}
+
+By default, LON-CAPA is controlled by a combination
+of the Inline Menu and the Main Menu. The Inline Menu
+will appear at the top of every page in LON-CAPA. Click on the 
+\textbf{Main Menu} link within the Inline Menu to access the Main Menu. 
+
+\noindent\textbf{Remote Control}
+
+LON-CAPA also offers a \textbf{Remote Control} menu. The Remote Control is a separate pop-up browser window, and is automatically
+sized and placed in the upper left of the screen. To enable and experiment with the Remote Control menu, navigate to: Main Menu $>$ My Space $>$ Set my user preferences $>$ Content Display Settings $>$ Launch Remote Control. To exit from the remote, either close the window, or look for the inline menu command to exit on the upper right of the parent browser window.
+
+Hints for each button appear when hovering over the buttons. Click the words \textit{Extended Display} immediately above the remote command display to obtain a list of hints.
