Config noVNC_control_bar on right side by default

[John Wong]

HI all,

I would like to config 'noVNC_control_bar' on right side by default.

Is it possible?   which files need to modify?

Thank you.

Unfortunately, that is not currently exposed as a setting you can modify
as an admin. You'd need to modify the source code in app/ui.js in that case.

Are you seeing an issue with the current default, and letting users
control this?

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

No issue,  just personal preference.

Do you mind to show me example, how to modify the code to achieve it?  (eg: like swap left|right in ui.js ...)?

Thank you.
