Feature Request

Product: Remote Desktop Manager for Linux Version: 2025.3.2.3 Framework: .NET 9 / Avalonia 11.3.9 Desktop: KDE Plasma (Wayland) Description: Under KDE Plasma Wayland with fractional scaling (e.g. 160%), Remote Desktop Manager does not respect the system scaling factor. The UI renders at 100%, resulting in significantly smaller interface elements compared to native Qt and GTK applications. There is currently no in-application scaling option available. Expected behavior: One of the following should be implemented: Proper automatic detection and application of Wayland fractional scaling (preferred solution). Alternatively, provide a user-configurable UI scaling option inside the application (e.g. 125%, 150%, 160%, 175%, 200%). Many modern cross-platform applications provide internal scaling controls to ensure consistent usability across desktop environments and display servers. Why this matters: Wayland with fractional scaling is standard in modern Linux environments. Professional users working on high-resolution displays require predictable and consistent UI scaling without relying on environment variables or launch wrappers. Best regards, Christian

In the Win version of RDM: Select a system in the navigation pane Under the Macros/Scripts/Tools Tab There is a feature to "Check if the host is online". It continually pings the host and checks if its remote access port is responding, showing a red X if its not responding and green check when it is. Then you can "Connect when available" or "Connect after a failed scan". I use basically everything this function does daily. A common example is to auto reconnect to a remote system after booting/rebooting it. Cheers and thanks for your time!

Hi guys, I gave a try to the Free edition on Linux and it seems like most of the Batch Edit options are unavailable (greyed out) [image] Is that expected or I'm missing something? Thank you!

Description In the Windows version of Remote Desktop Manager, there is an “After Opening” event available under: Entry Properties → Events → After Opening This allows users to configure post-connection scripts directly within the UI. However, in the Linux version of RDM , the “After Opening” event option is missing from the UI . Despite this, if an After Login / After Opening script is configured in RDM Windows , it does execute correctly when the same entry is opened from RDM Linux . This confirms that: The backend support exists The execution engine supports the event Only the UI configuration option is missing in Linux Current Behavior The “After Opening” event is not visible in RDM Linux under Entry Properties → Events. If the script is configured from RDM Windows, it runs successfully on Linux . The event cannot be created or edited directly from Linux. Expected Behavior The Linux version should expose the “After Opening” event option in the Entry Properties → Events section. Ability to create, edit, and manage post-open scripts directly from Linux. Impact Inconsistent experience between Windows and Linux clients. Linux-only users cannot configure post-open automation. Creates confusion since the functionality works but is not configurable. Suggested Improvement Add the missing “After Opening” event UI support to RDM Linux to match the Windows implementation and ensure consistent cross-platform behavior.

Request Please add the documentation count/indicator badge on Linux (e.g., showing “1” when documentation exists), matching Windows behavior. Current behavior After creating/saving documentation content for an entry, Linux does not display a numeric indicator on the Documentation tab, unlike Windows. Expected behavior Show a clear badge/count indicator on the Documentation tab when documentation exists (same concept as Windows). Why it matters / impact Users miss that documentation exists and forget to consult it; reduced usability and visibility.

Request Please add/expose the Certificate Generator tool in RDM Linux , under Tools (matching Windows). Current behavior Certificate Generator is available in Windows Tools but not shown in Linux Tools. Expected behavior Certificate Generator should be available on Linux in the same place and with comparable functionality. Why it matters / impact Users lose a utility they rely on in Windows, causing platform fragmentation.

Request Devolutions Send should be accessible from the Tools menu in RDM Linux , as it is in RDM Windows . Current behavior Devolutions Send is available on Windows under Tools, but it is not present/visible in the Linux Tools menu (observed with a non-ribbon menu layout). Expected behavior Devolutions Send should appear and be usable from Tools on Linux (or an equivalent discoverable location), consistently across UI layouts. Why it matters / impact Feature discoverability and parity issue; users assume it’s missing/broken.

Request Please improve the SSH session toolbar on RDM Linux to match Windows parity (multiple actions/icons + customization). Current behavior On Linux, the SSH toolbar is extremely limited (only a single icon observed), while Windows provides many session actions. Expected behavior Expose the same (or comparable) SSH toolbar actions on Linux as on Windows, ideally including customization. Why it matters / impact Reduced efficiency when working in SSH sessions; common actions require extra steps or are unavailable.

Request Please add the “Session ID” input field to Winbox session configuration on RDM Linux , matching the field available on RDM Windows . Current behavior The Session ID field exists on Windows but is missing from the Linux Winbox UI. Expected behavior Linux Winbox session settings should include the same Session ID field (and store/use it the same way as Windows). Why it matters / impact This breaks/paralyzes an established workflow that relies on Session ID.

Request Please add the RDP “Mouse Jiggler” option in RDM Linux , equivalent to what exists in RDM Windows . Current behavior On Linux, the option is not visible/available in the RDP settings (expected under Experience). Expected behavior A user-configurable checkbox/option to enable Mouse Jiggler for RDP sessions on Linux, matching Windows behavior. Why it matters / impact Without it, long-running RDP tasks are interrupted when idle timeouts trigger lock/disconnect.

Hi There, Some features are missing in the RDM Client for Linux which I really miss. When something has been written in the Documentation section or Files in the Attachments, there is in the Windows Client, a blue Dot or a number into parentheses.

Hi There, Would it be possible to add a search field in the "Image List" similar to the windows version? Thank you very much

Hi there, In the Linux Client I'm missing the "Select" button in the quick search (Ctrl+Space). Would it me possible to add a button to directly copy or show the TOTP Password in case on is configured in the entry?

Hi there, I miss the possibility to add/edit variables in the property of entry or vaults. It's also missing from the web portal of the dvls Thank you very much

Hi Guys, While selecting a Folder in RDM, in the Dashboard, under Entries, it is not possible to show/hide mode colums in order to be able to show more information about the entries under this folder. The same problem is under Logs. Colums are fixed and not possible to hide/show the necessary information. Thank you very much!

Hello everyone, I would like to propose a feature request for Remote Desktop Manager on Linux regarding Website sessions. Current Behavior Under Preferences → Session Types → Website , we can choose a browser engine (Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Opera). However, this setting is global and cannot be overridden per individual Website entry. Requested Improvement Allow selecting the web browser per Website entry , similar to the flexibility available on Windows.

Hi There, Would it be possible to add the support of ISL Light? The ISL Light Client Software is available for Linux. Thank you guys

Hi there, It is possible to add an Entry to an entry as a subentry. However it's not possible to move subentry to another entry. Only entry under a folder can be moved or drap/drop. I guess the problem is that the Folder field in the property of the entry, doesn't list other entries but only folders.

Dear Devolutions Team, I am a regular user of RDM on Linux, and I truly appreciate the work you’ve done on this platform. I am writing to share some feedback and suggestions that I believe would significantly improve the user experience for the Linux version. Core Suggestions: Implement a Dockable Layout: Transition the Linux version to a dockable UI, similar to the Windows version or modern IDEs like VS Code and IntelliJ. Auto-Collapse Feature: Add an auto-hide/collapse function for the navigation panel. Floating Navigation Panel: Allow a floating layout for the navigation panel with a dedicated toggle button on the title bar. Terminal Split Feature: Support split-screen views for terminal sessions within a single tab or window. Reasoning & Explanation: The primary reason for using RDM on Linux is its efficiency in managing multiple servers. However, the current UI constraints impact the user experience in the following ways: Content Area Optimization: To maximize the remote content view, we often hide the status bar, menu bar, and panels. Currently, expanding the navigation panel forces the remote content to scale down or trigger a session resize, which can lead to forced reconnections on certain servers. A floating or dockable navigation panel would allow the content area to maintain its original resolution and size. Workflow Efficiency: Currently, opening a new session requires manually toggling the navigation panel on and off via shortcuts. An auto-collapse feature—where the panel retracts once a session is opened or when it loses focus—would significantly streamline this repetitive workflow. Multitasking & Debugging: When debugging programs, we often need to monitor logs and system resources (e.g., btop) simultaneously. Switching between tabs is counter-intuitive for real-time monitoring. A terminal split feature would allow us to view multiple live sessions side-by-side. Conclusion: Since the Windows version of RDM already utilizes a dockable layout , bringing this feature to the Linux version would effectively address all the points mentioned above. It would provide the flexibility needed for professional server management and ensure feature parity across platforms. Thank you for your time and for considering these improvements. I look forward to seeing how RDM continues to evolve on Linux. Best regards

Hello Devolutions Team, I’m currently using RDM on Linux Mint 22.2 for daily operational and survey work, often handling many simultaneous RDP/SSH/Telnet sessions. i would like to suggest to adding more keyboard shortcuts to RDM Linux, especially while navigating tabs. this example of shortcut that i suggest to add and off course. Changing to next opened tabs : Ctrl+Tab Changing to previous opened tabs : Ctrl+Shift+Tab Closing a tab : Ctrl+Shift+W Reconnect : Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R Clear scrollback : Ctrl+Shift+Q These combination is familiar to me and will useful to me or others workflows. Thanks for considering!

I'm a heavy Linux user and I work as a Network Engineer/Network Administrator. I use serial interfaces to connect and configure switches, routers, ect via a console cable. I see that on the Windows RDM version, there is support for a serial port. I know that I can do this from the terminal, but it would be nice to have a single pane of glass to connect to a serial port using my RDM on my Linux box and initial configure my switches/routers/firewalls.

Hi everyone, I'm migrating from Windows 10 to Kubuntu 25.10 and would like to take RDM with me. When connecting to HTTPS secured websites using self-signed certificates, in Windows one was able to ignore HTTPS errors at least for the embedded browsers I was using. I can't see a similar setting with Linux, though still using the same XML file like with Windows. Is that not supported with the embedded browser used here?

Hello, could you add support for Microsoft RemoteApp in RDM Linux (Fedora) ? Thank you.

Hello, I am using Remote Desktop Manager on Debian 13 and noticed that Winbox entries cannot be edited. Currently, there is no option to change IP addresses, passwords, or other parameters within Winbox entries on Linux. Having the ability to edit these fields directly would greatly improve usability and make Winbox entries much more practical to use. I would like to suggest adding this functionality in a future update. I believe many users working with MikroTik devices would benefit from this feature. Thank you for considering this request. Best regards, Noel

I'm a heavy Linux user and I'm constanly SSH into switches/routers/firewalls to configure and modify them. I notice that on the Linux version of RDM, there is no cofiguration setting to configure sytax highlighting, but there is on the Windows version of RDM. The syntax highlighting feature is very helpful in pointing out things out and help put visual focuse on specificy things more quicker. I've used syntax highlighting in my other apps I use, it would be nice to have on my Linux RDM applicaiton.
