Ubuntu
remmina package

Full Screen toolbar always visible in local upper virtual desktop

Asked by Tomás Manzano Galán

I use remmina to connect to remote windows or unix machines through the rdp protocol from my Ubuntu 16.04 box. When I go full screen into those remote desktops you get a toolbar that hides beyond the upper border of the remote desktop.

In Ubuntu if you use virtual desktops locally (More than one desktop) you can always see at the botton of the desktop the toolbar of remmina remote desktop. This happens on the desktop that is virtually on top of the one you have the remmina full-screen desktop in. That's quite annoying. Is there a way to prevent it?

* Client (OS name and version): Ubuntu 16.04.1
* Remmina version (remmina --version): 1.1.2
* Desktop environment (GNOME, Unity, KDE, ..): Unity
* Connecting to (OS and version): Whatever
* Connecting via (RDP, VNC, ...): RDP

Why connect to UNIX via RDP... seems weird.

Does rdesktop work OK?

Using RDP to connect to jump Linux boxes used to display graphical java GUIs for infraestructure managing. Everything on a remote site and only graphical connection protocol allowed is RDP.

Rdesktop works ok. Of course it doesn't matter as rdesktop doesn't feature the toolbar thats causing me the problems.

Is the Java GUI not in a web browser?

ALl I can suggest is report a bug. All I can suggest is use rdesktop until you get a fix

Are you just walking through answers to say the first thing that come to your mind and earn points? I've got my way to perform all things needed in my environment, don't need another way around. I've asked a simple question "anyone knows how to correct that?" You are not answering. So thanks for trying to be helpful but, sorry, you aren't. This is the first step to open a bug, as you should know. I'll wait for someone that maybe knows a real answer or a week or two before filling the bug. And please, restrain from answering again if you don't know what you're talking about.
