(solved) Suggestion: Customizable "blank screen"

[Bithunter]

We have some users that see a black screen, move the mouse, and think the PC is freezed, so they press reset button.

A nice feature could be the possibility to set a message when "toggle remote input and monitor" is activated. So, when we lock a computer, the user see a "we are working on this computer, please wait a moment, it's not freezed!"

Thanks.

Redge, I wasn't able to get it work ... bmp should be in a special format/color deep/size/etc?

no special requirement, only official file .bmp
don't rename a jpg --> .bmp, is not enough.
you can convert a jpeg file to bmp with free picture converter.


mirror driver, if the case,
there a known issue with it and background.bmp won't show reported by user YY

don't know if solved with uvnc 1.0.8 and mirror driver
without mirror driver, no problem.

It works in 1.0.8. I use mirror driver, and background doesnt work in 1.0.6.5.

Thanks.
