RDWA - limit to one monitor full screen for IT support staff

In our shop, we use RDWA to access the Windows 7 virtual desktops, server is Windows Server 2012.
Since IT support staff have two monitors, when they login to user's virtual desktop for testing / support purpose, the display will be spanned across two monitors. We want to keep the user's virtual desktop in one monitor and use the other monitor
to other purpose, e.g. searching internet for problem resolution, email, etc.
Is there a way to restrict the virtual desktop to show up full screen in just one monitor.
I have searched the forum but seems not getting the answer.
Assistance appreciated.

Hi TP,
Thanks for your reply.
In your previous response, you mentioned there are other methods for IT support staff to connect to the user's virtual desktop.
>> "How exactly are they using it to connect to a Windows 7 VM? Are they using the Connect to remote PC tab and entering the name of the VM, or do they have access to the same virtual desktop collection as the user, or are they
logging on to RDWeb using the end user's credentials, or ?"
May I know how the other connection methods can be achieved?
Thanks for your advise.

Can I run 2 monitor with one of the monitor having Full Screen for Elgato Eye TV?

My mac mini has Elgato 'Eye TV' software that runs in 'Full Screen'. I want to keep this setting & also connect another monitor to the macmini & use other Appilications on the other monitor? Can I run 2 monitor with one of the monitor having Full Screen for Elgato Eye TV?
My early 2009 macmini can run Mac OS 10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8

Yes, run one from HDMI and the other from Thunderbolt/minidisplayport sockets. In EyeTV Preferences check the screen you want for full screen use and make sure your Dock is on the other one.

Monitoring full screen HDV over firewire from camcorder

Hello,
I am a recent switcher from Windows to Mac. One thing I haven't figured out how to do yet on my Mac is to simply use my MacBook Pro screen to monitor (in full screen) the HDV video that comes off the Firewire cable of my Sony camcorder.
On Windows XP, I used to use VLC for this. I posted a message a few weeks ago asking for help with this on my camcorder's forum:
http://www.sonyhdvinfo.com/showthread.php?t=13728
but haven't gotten any solution yet.
The thing is that the Mac version of VLC doesn't have the 'Open from Capture Device' feature that the Windows version does, and I haven't been able to figure out any other way with Final Cut or Quicktime on my new Mac to do this.
Again, I simply want to MONITOR full screen the HDV video that comes off my Sony camcorder's firewire. If I use the logging tool in Final Cut, I only get a small preview window (which I can't seem to get full screen). Same in Quicktime. Of course I can CAPTURE the tape to Final Cut and then playback full screen, but that is a step I'm hoping to avoid.
Do you Mac folks have any other tricks for doing this?
Thanks for the help!

Thanks for all your replies, but I still haven't found a solution for this one:
@Red Door:
It looks as you might be right! Thanks for confirming what I've found to be true: this may not be possible on a Mac!
@Studio X:
Thanks for this idea. I already do this when I have a HDTV available. But the idea here is that I'd like to be able to use my laptop monitor for this when I'm on the road (and don't have an HDTV, or the HDMI cable, available). As I said, with my Windows laptop and VLC this was a great solution to monitor my HD camera when I'm on the road with just my laptop and camcorder. Its a shame I can't get my gorgeous new MacBook Pro with the beautiful almost-HD resolution monitor to do this!
@Thomas & Andy:
Thanks for these recommendations .. they almost worked! I tried both and neither quite did the job. BTV looks like a really old program (last release 2002?). It looked promising, but alas couldn't get it to recognize my HDV camcorder.
Monitor Magic looked even more promising, as it is a new piece of software specifically made for this purpose. Indeed, it did recognize my HDV camcorder no problem, but alas it still couldn't do the job. First, you can't monitor full screen! (That's my whole point.) Additionally, I didn't get any sound and also the video quality was really poor in the preview window. No way to deinterlace and lots of dropped frames. I got a better preview window out of Final Cut and Quicktime.
Anyway, thanks for your recommendations but my search continues! (At least until a better version of VLC for Mac comes out!)
I remain really surprised how hard this is to accomplish on a Mac! Macs have such a good reputation for video/media editing. Regardless, this was pretty tough to get working on my Windows laptop until I discovered VLC.
Thanks again!

Dual Monitor Full Screen Images

Hy to everyone, I have a G5 with dual monitor out set to 1024x768 each, for a total resolution of 2048x768, i created images graphics of that resolution(2048x768)like jpg tiff, flash,and I want to display these enterely on the two monitors not only in one, when i maximize the windows it fit the images only in one screen and not in two screen. What i have to setup? is there some software that manage the desktop and windows of the mac?

I Can manually strech the quick time to reach the 2048x768 resulution, but i see the toolbar of quicktime and i dont wan't it.
Thanks a lot.

Dual monitor full screen woes

I generally use two screens (two separate monitors) while working on my macbook pro at home. the issue i face is that if I need to use an app in full screen, say i watch a movie on one of the screens, the other one is rendered useless and only shows a black screen. Is there someway to use both my screens as separate spaces, whereby I'm able to use full screen apps on both my monitors at the same time?

I haven't seen this occur on my Macbook pro with secondary or triple monitors. Is this happening with all fullscreen content (eg. YouTube)? What browser and Flash Player Version are you using? Also, is this a retina macbook?

Forcing secondary monitor full screen

I have to flash projector files: one acts as a controller to
chose a flv(s). The other plays the selected video (through
localconnect).
Th second projector (the "player" if you will) needs to load
full screen in-order to display on a TV properly. However, adding
fscommand("fullscreen","true"); forces the projector to load in the
primary monitor.
Is there a way to assign what monitor it should load full
screen into? If not, can you think of a way around it? (3rd party)
Thanks!
EDIT: Did some more research. Let me define my question
farther... Is there a way to do this with out jugglor?

Yes FlashJester Jugglor can do exactly this.

PSE 6 - Dual Monitor Full Screen Problem

I've got a Thinkpad (with NVIDIA Quadro M140 integrated graphics) connected via DVI to a Samsung SyncMaster 206BW monitor using Vista Enterprise.
I've set up my workspace as Dual Monitor, DualView. My Font DPI is set at 96 (Default).
When I click Maximize on the Thinkpad LCD, PSE 6 opens fully and correctly.
When I click Maximize on the Samsung external monitor, PSE 6 opens a window that is larger than the monitor AND there are no bars at the bottom to shift the display. Therefore, I cannot see about 15% of the right side of the window when in Maximum/Full Screen mode.
PSE 6 appears to be the only program that has this problem.
I cannot adjust the monitor, since I'm connected via DVI.
All video drivers are current.
Is there a fix for this problem?

I need Browser on Full Screen for WDA

Hi Experts,
I need in my application proyect, that the Browser appear on Full Screen. I made this use
CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->create_external_window() with the parameters abap_false.
My problem now: I call a Url from one application, this have a Window, that in the Init Method call the second application with The Method create_external_window. This second application have all the views that i need for my developer.
I need close the first window (Application 1) when y close the Second application. I only can close the second application (window). I can´t navigation into second and first application --> Controller for View, Window, Interface, and Configuration Cannot Be Created (Error CX_WDR_RT_EXCEPTION into ST22 transaction).
Is there any possibility that´s to obtain the Browser Fullscreen in unique application Web Dynpro??
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Alberto.

Thanks for answering. The only browser I have on this machine is Safari. Tried the restart bit without success. Do not know if I have the latest Flash Player. However, by experimenting around YouTube, I'm finding that this problem seems to be linked only to videos uploaded on the Perpetuum Jazzile video stream. I can get other videos full screen as usual. I'm thinking it must be something different on that site between yesterday and today. Possible?

How do I get my contact's photos to display full screen for incoming calls?

I noticed today that when I get an incoming call it no longer displays "full screen". I keep missing calls because it now only displays as a banner at the top of the screen that someone is calling and their photo (if I've assigned one to them) is a tiny thumbnail.
Did I only just notice now that this is another 'great upgrade' with the new IOS, or is this some weird glitch with my phone? I've been wondering how I've been missing calls in the past week, but just happened to catch it today after I had been using the new map app and wasn't sure if it was just a coincidence or if it's somehow connected..?
Is there any way to change this or am I stuck with it this way??

I've never added my contact on my computer, I've always done it through my phone (I didn't know you could do it through the computer). The problem is not the photo, it's that the call doesn't come in and take up the full screen. Now when a call comes in, it displays as a banner at the top of the phone where the time and date normally would be, so I don't notice anyone's phoning.
As far as I can recall, it's only started happening since yesterday after I used the new map app. I've checked my notifications settings and the phone settings and so far as I can see, everything is set the same way it always was. I checked my hubby's phone to see if it's maybe something new since this last update to IOS6, but the call displays full screen (regardless whether the contact has a photo associated to it or not) and not a banner at the top of the screen like mine.
I still don't know how to change this back. Any other suggestions?

Yosemite - dual monitor; full screen option

I have a Mac Mini running the latest version of Yosemite. I have two monitors. Because I want to use Spaces, I do not have separate desktops on each monitor. My problem comes in when I click on a window "expand" button. When I do this the window expands to fill its current monitor. What is new with Yosemite (at least in my experience) is that all content on the other monitor (doesn't matter if it primary or not) is blanked out. Presumably the purpose of this is to allow someone to focus better on the task at hand. However, focus is not the only reason why someone would want to fill their current monitor's screen with a single window. It could just be used as a short-cut way to enlarge the current window.
I'd appreciate any suggestion as to how to work around this besides dragging the corner of each window to fill the monitor screen. And I'd recommend that if this behavior is as planned, that users have an option to [ignore | leave as is] the other monitor's content.
Thanks in advance for any reply.

CS6 monitor - full screen weirdness....

Win 7 , Quadro 3800FX ...CS6...
Has anyone else seen or experienced this little weirdness.
Minimise PPRO CS6...ande do something like go to Win Explorer, PhotoShop (or whatever)..close "whatever" to discover that PPRO Program monitor is full screen on Primary Monitor. As if CTRL-Grave (ctrl-tilde) has been invoked.
Mouse to top right where Program Monitor is located ( default position usually) and the PPRo interface restores itself as ( timeline , project panel etc..)

Never seen that Behavior on my system, I use an Nvidia GT470

Strange behaviour of 2nd monitor full screen image

Hi,
Since last night, my LR5 is starting to behave very strangely with my 2nd monitor image. My 2nd monitor has been set to "Show, Full Screen and Loupe-Normal", and I have always been using this two monitor set up to show my image in full screen mode (since LR4) without problems. But since last night, the 2nd monitor image starts to minimize itself randomly. If I click the 2nd monitor icon (on the bottom left of main screen) it comes back. Then when I moven to the next photo, it may disappear (minimize) again. It is very frustrating. I never changed any of my settings. Is there anything that I missed? What makes the 2nd monitor image go away? Anybody experienced the same phenomenom?
Thanks in advance.
Jerry

HT204291 How does one get full screen when using air play on my tv from my iPad,thanks in advance

How does one get a full screen when using air play on my tv when I'm mirroring,.? Thanks in advance

The iPad's display is 4:3, so it cannot fill your TV screen, which is 16:9
The only way is to change your TV settings and stretch the image.

Minimizing from full screen for no reason

When I watch movies on the internet and switch to full screen mode after a few mins full screen minimizes back to the web page. how can I stop this?

Thanks for clarification, I often state: so many photographers, so many
workflows...
Personally I think the full screen preview is more meant for sorting
properties then to view the changes made in ACR but it might be a nice
Feature Request (there is a dedicated forum page for this, see the links at
right side of main forum page.
For what it is worth, I tried your way of working and after altering in ACR
I don't have the appearance of the Bridge Window in front, the full screen
preview updates almost immediately. However now the top menu bar for Bridge
is showing as well as my Dock so also on a Mac this workflow is not going to
work 100 % for you
A workaround might be to create your own workspace in Bridge using the
filmstrip mode as basic. Drag the preview panel for this to a size as big as
possible without losing the content panel (place the content panel either at
left side or at top with dragging until you see the blue lines). Now you
should have fast changing big previews without interfering of Bridge window.
For sorting you could choose filename after you have renamed the files. I
use Photodownloader for this upon ingestion rename the files with yyyymmdd
and a sequence number to leave them in natural order I created the files but
with no change to overwrite older files due to limited naming convention
dSLR uses.
But there are many ways to rename, even after having files already in Bridge
sorted with date created and then using batch rename with a proper naming
convention, but that is up to you
I regularly work on photos by starting with a full-screen preview and keying
Ctrl-R to open with ACR. When I am finished with ACR, I am returned to the
full-screen preview. I am guessing that the reorganisation of the Content
panel is what causes the Bridge window to come to the foreground (covering the
full-screen preview) after several seconds. This is all that could be
happening.
