Viewer Scale: Auto but up to 100% only

Post by kazan »

Hi All,

Been using UVNC since long and it's time to ask :) RIght now on latest ver.
Is there any way to setup "Viewer Scale: Auto" but only up to 100%?

Regards,
Kazan

If you activate direct_x (viewer option) the display follow the screen size.
Just keep the aspect ratio more or less the same as the original screen else you get deformations.

Thanks but it doesn't work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
So in the Viewer I tick "DirectX" option.

but after connection I still have screen scaled to 121% and not to 100%, so it looks horrible and I need to manually scale it back to 100%.

Some users have resolution much higher than resolution of my screen so I would like to scale it automatically down to fit my screen and that works fine. I just don't want to up scale screens with resolutions lower than my screen. I hope now all is clear. :) So, is that possible what I want to achieve?

Regards,
Kazan.

The big difference is that when you use directx, the scaling follow the window size.
In non directx mode the scaling is fixed and scrollbar are used.

Auto scaling try to set the biggest possible window that fit BOTH: horizontal and vertical screen sizes.
There is no option to only auto scale when the screen is to big, sorry.

Function DirectX still the experimental? There are no guarantees that it will steadily work?
