Thanks for your assistance. I will resize manually.

Thanks,

As far as I can tell, the only way to get it to auto-resize is to actually drag it with the mouse, which can't be done once it's actually maximized to a split ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/hyper-v-guest-virtual-machine-connection-full-screen-does-not-resize/?ID=9f898d75-8ca3-4c97-96c7-19daf652de9f#6 Wed, 21 Mar 2018 17:25:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/hyper-v-guest-virtual-machine-connection-full-screen-does-not-resize/?ID=9f898d75-8ca3-4c97-96c7-19daf652de9f#6 DisplayFusion Hey Keith,

Understood. Can I setup a custom function or scripted function to send the proper command after a maximize?

Thanks,
Bryan ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/hyper-v-guest-virtual-machine-connection-full-screen-does-not-resize/?ID=9f898d75-8ca3-4c97-96c7-19daf652de9f#5 Tue, 20 Mar 2018 17:50:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/hyper-v-guest-virtual-machine-connection-full-screen-does-not-resize/?ID=9f898d75-8ca3-4c97-96c7-19daf652de9f#5 DisplayFusion I've had a chance to do some more testing with this, and it looks to be a bug with the VMConnect window. It doesn't detect the resize if it wasn't done with the mouse. I can reproduce the same issue if I use the Windows built-in Win + Left hotkey on the VMConnect window.

At the moment I can't think of any way to work around this, other than just manually resizing the window with the mouse.

Sorry! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/hyper-v-guest-virtual-machine-connection-full-screen-does-not-resize/?ID=9f898d75-8ca3-4c97-96c7-19daf652de9f#4 Thu, 15 Mar 2018 20:09:10 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/hyper-v-guest-virtual-machine-connection-full-screen-does-not-resize/?ID=9f898d75-8ca3-4c97-96c7-19daf652de9f#4 DisplayFusion Yeah, for sure, it was just a test to see what happened. I think the issue is with sending the SetWindowPos command to the window for setting the size/position, but I'll need to do some more testing with help from our devs here to find out. I will keep you posted as soon as I have more news.

Yes. But that ignores the virtual splits and goes full screen. But, I guess that would be normal behavior for Shift + Maximize.

Thanks,

After connecting, if I resize the window by pulling the bottom right handle, the client resizes just fine. However, if I click the maximize button, the client does not resize. I've attached the two scenarios in screenshots. It's hard to say if this is a display fusion issue. If I exit displayfusion a maximize of VMConnect goes to Full Screen mode and the client resizes properly.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that any scripted functions to a specific resolution of the window also exhibit the same failed behavior.

Any thoughts?
