RDP connection to remote host displays smaller resolution than the screen resolution

Having a problem with a surface with 8.1 installed.  When connecting via Remote Desktop Connection to a remote host, the display is smaller than the display settings set for the desktop on the surface.  If I change the Display settings for the
Surface, the display in the RDP session is still smaller. 
I've tried changing the resolution settings for the connections under the display section of Remote Desktop Connection, but all that does is change the session to a window instead of full screen and does nothing to change the actual display size of the remote
session.
I believe this may be a function of DPI Scaling, but changing settings on the local surface display does nothing to change the behavior in the remote session. 

Hi,
Sorry for my dilatory reply. Actually acctually to your descriptioin, I doubt whether this problem caused by Surface itself problem. It would be better to contact Surface Forum for further
assistance:

  • Why would the display be larger than the screen?

    My Mac has started opening with a screen that is larger than the display. (I may not have the terminology quite right)  Here's a non-techie description...if the phyical display is 1680x1050, Finder or Safari open up at, say, 1720x1200. If I want to have the toolbar visible at the top, I cannot see the dock at the bottom. If I want the Apple to be at the top left corner, I cannot see the time at the top right. In both cases it is one or the other. Restarting has no effect on this annoyance.

    Try holding down control and scrolling down (or up, it depends). That should zoom down to fit. I assume you've checked the preferences to see that you have the right size selected.

  • My iPod display is larger than the screen, how do,I change it  back?

    I don't know how this happened.  It was fine then I pressed the home button to get out of an app and now the display is huge and it's hard to navigate around the screen.

    Never mind, we figured it out.  Needed to double tap with three fingers to zoom back out.

  • 'Connect to Remote Host' is disabled

    Hello
    We have recently upgraded to CS4. I have imported all of my old connections without problem.
    My boss recently asked to show him how to upload files to a certain site. Setup site as usual on his machine, but where I can click my 'Connect to Remote Host' button and see all of the server files, my boss' button is disabled and shows a message about setting up version control first.
    We do not want to do this, only to access the server just like we did before. Can version control be turned off? Or is it a different problem?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi David
    Everything that you said is how it is already setup.
    Access set to None.
    Within Manage Sites > Remote Info all the FTP connection is correct, and has been tested.
    He is actually already using the site, but only through GET and PUT commands, never being able to actually see what is on the server!
    I created the site on my machine a while ago (before updating to cs4), and I wondered if it was something to do with that? I had just made some amends to the site before setting the FTP up in Dw on my boss' Mac.
    As mentioned, below the button, in the space where the server files should display, the message reads "to see the files in the repository you must define the version control settings", which are currently set to NONE.
    cheers

  • Elom Java Console "Connect to remote host Fail"

    Hi,
    I'm accessing an elom over the https interface, which works fine, however when trying to launch the Java console, the app starts but a dialogue box appears stating "Connect to remote host Fail!", and quits when I click ok. I'm using:
    Kubuntu 9.10
    Firefox 3.5.5
    Java 1.6.0_15
    Elom firmware version 2.70
    I've also tried running against JRE 1.5, and tried saving the jnlp file and running that directly from javaws, all attempts produce the same result. I am able to connect to port 8890 from my machine. An strace seems to suggest that it sends and receives from port 8890 but then gets a Connection reset by peer.
    Furthermore I've also tried running it through localhost using an ssh tunnel to the elom, again, same result.
    I've now run out of ideas of what could be causing this issue, any help would be greatly appreciated.
    TIA
    Regards
    Craig

    FYI, I downloaded the debian package of libstdc++5 from http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_i386.deb
    After installing that on Kubuntu, the console works fine.

    <E-mail Edited by Host>

    It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
    I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
    So what to do, what to do.
    Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
    I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
    When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
    Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
    The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
    It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
    So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
    The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
    So what you will have to do is this:
    Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.

  • How comes the Ipad mini isn't Retina Display if it has the same resolution as the New iPad?

    How comes the Ipad mini isn't Retina Display if it has the same resolution as the New iPad?

    The iPad mini doesn't have the same resolution as the "new iPad".
    iPad 3 & 4 (retina) = 2048x1536 pixels
    iPad 1 & 2 (original) = 1024x768
    iPad mini = 1024x768
    Apple likely didn't put a retina screen in the iPad mini to keep cost down and to have an option to upgrade the iPad mini to a retina screen down the road, in a year or two.  It could be however that the pixel density of 2048x768 at 9" poses a problem for the viewer, in that text and features might be rendered too small or too thin for the average buyer/consumer.

  • How can I make my flash Webpage displayed same size on any screen resolution?

    Hi,
    How can I make my flash Webpage displayed same size on any screen resolution of my computer? Whether it is 1024 X 768 or 1280 X 960 screen resolution, the size of Webpage (Flash Webpage) should always be same so that user don't need to use horizantal scroll bar to view all the content.
    And secondly, how can I scroll my webpage vertical on moving with my mouse like in the following link: The below link also shows that it's webpage size is always same on any screen resolution.

  • Switcher ?Can you change the size of the screen resolution on the Macbook?

    I'm really interested in buying a Macbook. This will be my first Mac. I love the way they look and feel. I'm concerned with the size of everything on the Macbook. The overall size of the fonts in applications such as word, or safari was too small for me.
    Can you change the size of the screen resolution in OSX like you can on Windows? In Windows doing this makes everything visually bigger.
    Please say you can. I'm really wanting the Macbook as it would be great for for a student like me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Hopefully a Macbook 13" 2.0 Superdrive soon.
    Hopefully a Macbook 13" 2.0 Superdrive White soon.

    With an LCD, if you change the resolution, things will be bigger, but blurrier.
    You can however keep the resolution of the LCD at its native resolution, giving the maximum picture quality, and then use tools, such as Tinkertool…
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/11967
    … to modify the font display size of items such as the menu bar, Finder labels etc etc.

  • Is there any way to change the screen resolution in Front Row?

    Hi all,
    I've got a Mac Mini plugged in to my TV, and I want to be able to change the screen resolution depending on the content I'm watching (as some content is in 4:3 aspect ratio, some is in 16:9, and I'd prefer to have the picture filling the screen completely). Unfortunately, the TV doesn't have a "stretch" mode for making an 4:3 picture fit a 16:9 aspect ratio. If I know what I want to watch in advance, I can set the resolution accordingly using system prefs on the mac, but if I'm just sitting back choosing what to watch with the Apple Remote, it's annoying to have to leave front row, walk over to the computer and change resolution once I've decided what to watch, open system prefs, change resolution, re-launch Front Row and find what I wanted to watch again.
    So I was wondering if anyone had figured a way to allow the screen resolution to be switched from within the FrontRow UI. I've seen that people have written python based plug-ins such as PyeTV and Understudy that allow different types of content to be added to FrontRow, but I've not found any utility plug-ins such as what I'm looking for on the net (nor could I find SDK documentation on this API in the stuff that comes with XCode).
    I guess the other approach might be quick keys: has anyone had any success hooking up quick keys macros alongside front row in response to apple remote events? (seems too few events to be able to choose from, but I've never tried it, so I won't assume!) Or how about is there a way to trigger an AppleScript from within Front Row? And, of course, I'm very open to any other ideas you might have!
    Thanks very much in advance for any ideas on this.

  • URGENT: How to fix an application with the screen resolution?

    HI everyone,
    I am desprate and need help.. I have developed an application with Java swing and awt (JFrames, JPanels and...). This application displays perfectly with 1280 x 1024 screen resolution but in a situation where the screen does not support this resolution, a part of my application will not appear. I can not even scroll down to see the reste of the components. Does any one has any idea that how I can resolve this problem! I mean how either I can make my JFrame or panel to scroll down or to change the size of the components according to the resolution!
    Thank you very much and wait for a reply :)

    One of the possible reason of the problem is you must have hardcoded the size of panels and other container that is just right for the screen resolution 1280 x 1024.
    The solution is set the size of the containers that depends on the resolution of the screen.
    You have not explained much detail about the scrolling problem. But I suppose that you have a scrollpane in you GUI and you want to scroll the component inside it even at another resolution.
    try using this
    if p is the panel that is added in the scrollpane then set its prefered size.
    p.setPreferredSize(resolution dependant size).
