Hi,
I started using PuTTY in embedded mode. On the primary screen this works OK, but when I have RDM on an external screen, PuTTY hides at the border of RDM (see attached screenshot). To make the session visible I have to either move RDM to the primary screen or resize RDM to a smaller size.
When PuTTY is visible, I can resize (smaller) the sessionscreen, maximize RDM on the secondary and resize (larger) the sessionscreen to fit RDM. If I click maximize, the sessionscreen hides again.
I've read some other threads about PuTTY-option about resize fonts, this doesn't work for me.
I've also tried the RDM-option about default display (primary, secondary, current), which also didn't work for me.
I have RDM 6.1.3.0
Thank you for your attention.

Hi,
I know I'm asking for a lot, do you know if you can send me a video, or more printscreen?

Hi David, I've made a capture.
You can find it at http://www.molensky.com/PuTTY-embedded.zip (or a little more detail http://www.molensky.com/VIDEO0008.avi)

Hi David, did you have an opportunity to look at the capture?

Hi,
Sorry for the delay, I have tried to reproduce this but I'm unable to do so. Just to be sure, does it happen if you disconnect your second monitor?

Hi David,
I've made another test where the external screen is the primairy and the laptop-display is secondary. On both screens, PuTTY is now full screen as expected.
I try to reproduce the symptoms on an other machine. Let you know how this works out.

Hi David,
little sooner than I suspected.
If the secondary screen has a resolution smaller than the primairy, the offsets seems to go wrong. It doesn't matter which screen is primairy or secondary.
I've made a test where my primairy (external) screen has a resolution of 800x600. On the secondary (laptop) screen the resolution is 1280x800. On that screen, the maximized PuTTY window has a wrong offset and shows only part of the window.
To complete the test, I've opened PuTTY as external, and I can successfully open the window maximized on either screen.
I hope this helps in reproducing.

Hi David,
to give extra info. Now I'm using FileZilla (http://forum.devolutions.net/topic1271-winscp-asks-for-filezilla-in-613.aspx) I experience the same behaviour with this application embedded.

Do you have Large font enabled or something like that?
David Hervieux
You mean at Display Properties -> Appearance -> Font size ? This is set to Normal.
