mstsc /w:1906 /h:1001

You can tweak the values as needed to make it smaller or larger

Hope that helps! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/rdp-or-vnc-fullscreen-using-nvidia-surround-and-split-monitors/?ID=b20753e8-2686-4385-9813-b8efe86e3279 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 01:39:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/rdp-or-vnc-fullscreen-using-nvidia-surround-and-split-monitors/?ID=b20753e8-2686-4385-9813-b8efe86e3279 DisplayFusion While using three monitors with nvidia surround on, Win7 thinks I have one, large 5760x1080 monitor. When I enable auto-split with DF, I get three "sub" monitors. 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3. This allows me to maximize most windows only to the sub monitor and works pretty well. When trying to fullscreen RDP or a VNC session however, (destination system is 1920x1080) the app still thinks that the full monitor resolution of 5760x1080 is the fullscreen option. Is there a way to get RDP to think that 1920x1080 is the fullscreen resolution and only use the auto-split "sub" monitor such as 1.3?

I currently toggle on and off surround support to make 3, 1920x180 screens to get the desired result but it would be nice if I didn't have to.

Thanks! ]]>
