Transparent RDM windows

avatar

Hi,

the transparaten windows of RDM, like opening VPN etc are modal, even above other programms running.
That's quite annoying. Can't you make them less obtrusive?

Hi,
Could you post printscreen of the window? I'm not sure which one your are talking about.

This is strange because it's not supposed to be modal. However you're right its top most. Would you like me to change it to a notification like the one when you Copy the username?

No, this is also above all other windows.
The issue is than when multi-tasking I don't want the application in the background interfering with my work.
Example:
I fire up RDM and tell it to open 10 remote sessions. This takes quite a while (VPNs, delays etc). So in the meatime I continue working, like writing an email.
It just plain annoying if applications sitting in the background open windows to tell me what they are doing.

It is also the situation for the notification that the client connects to RDMS.
This is even better:
I usually don't want to know even when working with RDM. Maybe that should completely go to the status bar. Like outlook does. If everything is fine I don't care.
This just popped up above my browser window. I wasn't even using RDM.

I will make an option to move it to the statusbar
