image shows remote PC screen as cropped



Remote PC screen is cropped



Running remmina client 1.2.0-rcgit-29 (git rcgit-29)



Connected to remote Ubuntu desktop using VNC.



Remote desktop resolution is too high for client screen. There are no available or working option to scale the remote screen image to fit in the Remmina client window.



How do I fix this?

  • The comments in that link are simply untrue for my situation - "By default, the desktop is automatically scaled." This simply isn't happening. And there does not appear to be any way to force Remmina to scale the image. I am using Ubuntu 16.04 on both remote and client machine BTW, so the Windows version of Remmina may be different.
