\label{Remote_Menu}
\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.

The commands on the remote change depending on whether you are in a authoring space role or course role. Some of the important commands on the Remote Control are:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{ROLES (CHOOSE ROLE)} allows you to select which user role to assume
for this session.
\item \textbf{COM (COMMUNICATION)} allows you to access the communication functions
in the system.
\item \textbf{CUSR (USER ROLES)} brings up a page that allows you to create new
users and change user privileges.
\item \textbf{AUTH (AUTHORING SPACE)} displays the authoring space for your account.
\item \textbf{RES (RESOURCE SPACE)} allows you to browse the LON-CAPA network directory.
\item \textbf{SRCH (SEARCH LIBRARY)} brings up a screen that lets you search the
LON-CAPA resources using multiple criteria.
\item \textbf{PREF (PREFERENCES)} brings up a screen that allows you to change
some preferences.
\item \textbf{EXIT (LOGOUT)} will log you out of the LON-CAPA system.
\end{itemize}
