RDM 10.1.3.0 switches forcefully to its RDP session

Published 11 years ago

I've found a weird RDM behavior. The setup is win7 x64 and RDM 32-bit. When using alt+tab to switch between applications right after minimizing RDP session then the RDP session takes forcefully focus.

Steps to reproduce it.
1) I connect to embedded RDP session (full-screen) and then minimize it.
2) Then hold alt+tab longer than three seconds
3) full-screen embedded RDP session takes focus ignoring alt+tab.

Hi,
Could you post a small video? I think it's a known limitation. What happen when you click RDM in the taskbar?

I have made a video of that behavior. Please notice that I have done it twice to show it.

Hi,
I see the issue. I will see what I can do but I think we are facing a limitation. The application tries to refocus the content when it get the focus. You can disable this in File->Options | Advanced | Focus content on application activation

Hi David,

Thank you for the tip, but disabling did not help in any way. The application still refocuses even when not selected. What I noticed about this behavior is that if I minimize it and then select any application via mouse and then use alt + tab to switch the application does not refocus. However, when I try to switch directly after minimize it it the refocus behavior is there with the check button enabled or disabled.
