Methods and apparatuses are provided for use in local/remote session
computing environments. The methods and apparatuses allow users to be
more alert as to which graphical user interface (GUI), e.g., local or
remotely based, they are viewing and interacting with. When a remote GUI
is displayed in full screen mode, one or more identifiers are presented
to identify that the GUI is part of a particular local and/or remote
program/session. The identifier(s) may be selectively displayed depending
on the user's requirements.
