Use your hotkey combination (defaults: Left Ctrl + Left Shift + M on Windows and Left Cmd + Left Shift + M on macOS) to open the Phaze menu during your connection. From here, you can open new displays, change to fullscreen mode, change your chroma subsampling (4:4:4 vs. 4:4:2), choose an encoding technology (H265 v H264), increase/decrease your frame rate, increase/decrease your max bitrate, and switch to immersive mode (grab) for mouse, keyboard, or both.
