RDM Linux – Broadcast, Macros, and VPN Support Requests
RDM Linux – Broadcast, Macros, and VPN Support Requests
2 votes
Are there any roadmaps to get the linux version of the RDM software to be feature parity with the windows one.
For instance, things like Broadcast. And then the Macros options are just not available in the linux version in the entities view.

Hello everyone,
To help us track and prioritize your requests more efficiently, we are separating each feature request into its own dedicated forum thread. This will make it easier for our team to follow up on progress and for you to get notified when updates happen.
We’ll be closing this thread, but don’t worry — your individual requests have been preserved and moved to new posts. You can find your feature request(s) here:

Hi charks,
We are always reorganizing our roadmap by prioritizing the requests made by our users so we can add what is most valuable for you. The forum is a great place to let us know what functionality you want us to implement in RDM Linux.
As for macros, are you talking about the "After Open - Macro" window in Connection Settings -> Events -> After Open?
As for the broadcast, I just increased the priority of this feature.
Please let us know if there is any other missing feature you would like to use in RDM Linux.
Regards,
Gabriel Dubois
Gabriel,
On the after open section, is that to run a specific macro for every time I open the session? What I am really looking for is to have the ability to run a macro against a session(s) that I may or may not have open, but I do not want to to run every time I open a session.
It is possible to create a "Typing Macro" entry and then right click on your session in the connection tree > Macros/Scripts/Tools > "TheMacroNameEntry". If your session is not already opened, it will open it and then execute the macro. If your session is already opened, it will execute directly.
Please, let me know if that helps.

Yes that works, I guess what I am looking for is to be able to select multiples of entities, and run the same macro (typing macro), but that doesn't appear to work. In all fairness, it doesn't work on Windows either though, only does it to the first one selected. That's where broadcast comes in handy with working with multiple hosts.
Any update on this?
Hi charks,
We didn't start to work on the broadcast feature in RDM Linux yet, however I can tell you that it is a high priority on our list.
We will notify you directly when it's done.
As for the multi select macro issue, we will investigate too.
