Screen resolution for remote client

I have used Windows remote desktop and it has the fuction of setting the display resolution of the target machine when you login. So if i am on using a small laptop with small screen resolution (1024 x 768) and connect to a remote machine with a high resolution i can set the remote machine to display at 1024x768 nativly (no stretching or scalling).
DOES APPLE REMOTE DESKTOP HAVE THIS FUNCTIONALITY?

Ok so the solution was to user a different VNC client in Ubuntu. "Vinagre" allows you to view your remote session scaled to any size you like. It will however retain the dimentions of your MacBook screen.
One thing to be aware of is that when authentication your VNC session (entering your username and password) Vinagre only allows you to enter a password of 8 characters max. So if your password is longer then 8 characters you will have to shorten it to user Vinagre... A bit annoying but at least it works.
Techy notes:
It is actially the VNC server Vino that Vinagre uses that is enforcing the password length limit. So if using an alternative client that uses Vino as it's VNC server this limit will apply for that client also.
Even though you are scaling the client session down VNC sends the host's full resolution so you will still transfer a lot of data over the network.

  • 11gr1 - Handling different screen resolutions for an enterprise app.

    Hi,
    We are developing an enterprise application that will be deployed at different clients with different hardware.
    We are confused about how to handle different screen resolutions and wonder how others are handling this.
    We have some fixed size areas in our screens and liquid areas for content that may expand. The problem is say that you have a table with 6 columns. This table will be rendered nicely at 1280X800 but not at 1650X1050 or 800X600.
    At higher resolutions we will either end up having some blank space or expand one of the columns of the table , but can't expand every column proportionally and this will look ugly.
    For lower resolutions same problem in a different way will come into picture, we will not able to resize the columns and end up with scroll bars etc ...
    What is the best practice with handling different screen resolutions for components like table,panel splitter etc ?
    Thanks

    Hi Muhammed,
    I don't think that any better solution exists, you already use liquid layouts and define widths & heights with percentages etc. In my opinion using blank column at the end of table columns makes table's looking better. Additionally creating custom skin for table and defining column heights & widths with % or em may help you to stretch columns?

  • 24"iMAC optimal screen resolution for photo processing

    I have a 24" iMAC (matte) and do mostly photo editing. What is the optimal screen resolution for photo processing work?
    thanks
    a/d/

    All Screens are 72 dpi (dots per inch- in reference to pixels) no matter what screen resolution you use. The only difference the screen resolution will make is the size of the photo when you are viewing. Higher resolution means the picture will take up less space in you work area, but you will most likely have to zoom in to edit finer areas. Lower resolution will cause the picture you are editing to take up more of your work space and to see multiple photos side by side you will have to zoom out of fron the photos. So, really the choice is up to you.
    When creating the original document, this is where you need to monitor the dpi. The higher the dpi, the clearer your photo will look in print. A high dpi also means more disk space is being taken up by the photo. Generally a good dpi for print is 300 dpi. Anything that is only purposed for a screen based project (i.e. internet logos) should be saved at 72 dpi. Why use disk space and cause your pages to take longer load if no one will be able to tell the difference on screen between 72 and 300 dpi?
    Hope this helps!

  • Resizing  Screen Resolution for Specific Apps?

    Hello team,
    Is it possible to resize screen resolution for specific applications? Most of my apps look fine at 1024x768, but there are a couple of older OS 9 apps that I need to run (talking school computers here) which are a bit on the small side when viewed at that resolution. Can I somehow set things so that when those applications are launched, the resolution changes to 800x600, and then reverts to 1024x768 when they're quit again? Any and all details about this will be most appreciated, and I thank you in advance for your help!

  • How we will maintain screen resolution for tmaintaining able control in BDC

    how we will maintain screen resolution for tmaintaining able control in BDC. can you give the code or how we have to set it

    Hi,
    You need to use the CTU_PARAM options with the call transaction method.This is used if you would like to do a commit work once call trnasaction is done. This has also got very important property, for example if your Screen resolution is different from others then the screen (Application) will be different that is you'll be having say 5 lines in your screen where as your friend will be having 8 or 10 so your program might fail in this case. If you set variable DEFSIZE as 'X' it will always use the default screen size and hence avoids error.
    Use CALL TRANSACTION 'XXX' OPTIONS FROM w_ctu_params.( type CTU_PARAMS)
    This structure contains the follwing.
    DISMODE : Display mode (like the MODE addition)
    UPDMODE: Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
    CATTMODE: CATT mode (controls a CATT)
    CATT mode can have the following values:
    ' ' No CATT active
    'N' CATT without single-screen control
    'A' CATT with single-screen control
    DEFSIZE : Use default window size (Here we are handling those transaction by giving default window size)
    RACOMMIT: Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT : No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
    NOBIEND : No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
    The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
    'X' Yes
    This might help u in better understanding...

  • Change screen resolution in mobile clients

    Hi,
    Is there a way to define resolution in RDP mobile clients (wp,android,ios) when connecting to an RDP server?
    It seems mobile clients connect with their native (max) resolution to the server, but most of the time it makes no sense. Full HD and 4K, extremely high DPI mobiles are coming and the desktop is very small on these devices. I know it's possible to zoom in
    the session, but using full resolution it's a waste of bandwidth, especially on 3G.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I am afraid that we cannot customize the screen resolution on these clients. We can only zoom the screen via Connection Bar.
    Thanks.

  • Optimum Screen Resolution for Slides

    I need to create a few slides which will be displayed full-screen. Since
    there's no way to know the resolution of the monitors of the many
    participants, how do I choose the resolution of my slides? Are they
    downsampled in any way by the Adobe server when I upload them? My screen
    resolution is 1920 x 1200 but I suspect a slide built to that resolution
    would create problems for viewers on smaller monitors. Am I right? Is
    there an optimum screen resolution for slides viewed during a Connect Pro
    session?

    Natively you'll get a resolution of 1440 x 900 or you can pay for an upgrade  to 1680 x 1050(current models).

  • Classpath for remote client

    Hi,
    Is there a minimum package of classes (.jar, .zip) that are required for
    remote client application to call EJBs in WL 5.1 container ?
    My remote application works fine if I include WL_HOME/classes in its
    classpath. The problem is that WL_HOME/classes directory is huge. I am
    looking for some lightweight package of classes that would contain only
    client side implementation of WL's RMI, JNDI and EJB - just enough to
    call EJBs from remote client application.
    I couldn't find such .jar in the WL 5.1 installation.
    Can anybody help ?
    thanks,

    These is no such jar provided by BEA. You can try to create one using
    verbose2zip: http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/techstart/utils.html#verbosetozip
    If network speed allows for it, you can network classload from WebLogic :
    http://dima.dhs.org/misc/ThinClient.jsp or
    http://dima.dhs.org/misc/ThinClient2.jsp
    (this will download few hundred k, so it is not acceptable for a client
    connected via 28.8 modem).

  • Unable to Change Screen Resolution in Remote Session - Windows Server 2012 R2

    Does anybody know of a way to allow Remote Desktop users to adjust their own screen resolution in a remote session under Windows Server 2012 R2? We are struggling with this and can't seem to find a solution.
    When users login to their RDP session and try to adjust their screen resolution this message is displayed in Control Panel:
    "The display settings can't be changed from a remote session."
    We don't want to use the "make text and other items larger or smaller" scaling feature, as this produces undesirable results with some of our applications.  We also don't want to have to support multiple types of RDP clients or RDP shortcut
    files.
    We have looked at other posts but can't find an answer that applies to Windows Server 2012 R2.  The closest thing we could find is KB2726399, but it only applies to Server 2008.
    Does anybody have a solution for Server 2012?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Currently you cannot change the resolution from within the session.  This is normal and expected behavior.  
    Unfortunately this means you need to set the desired resolution before connecting by using custom .rdp files, manually within the Remote Desktop Client, custom web launch page, custom windows launch program, etc.

  • Screen resolution in remote connection

    Hello.
    I have several macs, both at home and at the office.
    I like to use my MacBook Air on the go.
    When at the office, I like to work from a mac mini with a full HD screen resolution.
    The MacBook Air support this external screen.
    In order to avoid connecting and deconnecting the screen all the time,
    I would like to connect to the MacBook Air from the mac Mini,
    and enjoy the full HD screen resolution, while working remotely on the MB Air.
    Unfortunately, I only can access the native MB Air resolution of 1440*900.
    Is there any way to solve this ?
    Thanks for your support,

    hi,
    The error message that usually comes in status bar while you are running the transaction online might appear in a popup window when you are running that in batch and makes fields disable for input . 
    sometimes while you are recording  a particular transaction you can observe some unwanted screens which will not appear when you are manually using the transaction.
    this problem is resolved by ctu_params. this also avoids the screen resolution problem.
    example:
    Declare a work area of type CTU_PARAMS
    X_OPTIONS-DISMODE = 'E'.  (dispaly mode)
    X_OPTIONS-UPDMODE = 'S'. (update mode)
    X_OPTIONS-DEFSIZE = 'X '.  (screen resolution)
    X_OPTIONS-NOBINPT = 'X'. (hide the popup and unwanted screen)
    call transaction tcode  using T_BDCDATA[] options from X_OPTIONS.
    thanks and rewards
