Screen sizing

avatar

I am trying to work out the best screen sizing for connection to my systems.
This is what I get when I use the old RDC Manager connections.

A complete set of controls for the application - Display, Edit, close, min\max etc.

When I connect to the same machine without using Remote Desktop Manager., things change and I lose the top of my application. I no longer see the top right controls to close, min\max etc. Makes life a little more difficult to work.

RDC is set to 'Scale docked remote desktop to fit window'
I have tried various settings in RDM, using Smart Sizing, defaults, but none seem to scale the screen correctly.

Is there a quick way to track best screen settings?

Hello Peter,

Thank you for reaching us. What version of RDM are you using and what type of datasource?

That being said, can you send us a complete screenshot of your launch RDC man entry in RDM? And one from your entry properties.

Best regards,

Update to build 19 did not change anything.

The entries are imports from RDC and are under a Local Data Source.
'Normal' RDP type is selected on general tab. I VPN into our systems and then open a connection.

Thank you Peter, for all this.

Can you launch the session in RDM and take a full screenshot of this entry please. You can blur, sensitive information if need be.

Best regards,
