Change the Default resolution for RDP?

Published 10 years ago

My question is this. In the RDP profile entry under the Display tab, the Remote Desktop Size is set to "Default" is there a place I can set what this Default is so that any RDP session that is set to Default will use that particular resolution?

I know about the Templates, but my understanding is that those settings that you define there are only used when you first create a RDP entry.

For example right now I would like all RDP sessions that I have set to "Default" to use 1280x800. But if I get a larger screen in the future I could see wanting to change that default to be a different size and I don't want to go through and change 100 different RDP entries to the new prefered size.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
This is not possible on Windows but it is on mobile. We could do something for that indeed.

I would love to see this feature added. I would imagine it would be add under Options -> Types -> RDP. Is there a more appropriate place I could submit this as a request?

Thanks Nathan :)

We will add an option in File > Options > Types > RDP which will be "Remote desktop size". If you leave it on "default" in the options it will do what it currently does with "default" in the RDP session. You can put it to whatever value is supported and for every RDP session with the "default" value for the desktop size, it will use this value.

This will be available in the next minor version of RDM
