Auto-Scroll Remote Screen

Post by jxp »

Auto-Scroll Remote Screen when it is larger than our viewer window, even if we are not using full-screen on the viewer.

I vote for this one too, this feature is present in "Remote Admin" tool (not free or open) and it is very usefull !

Currently, it's my pb: Remote desktop: 1280x1024, viewer term: 1024x768.. really annoying to scroll manually with the scroll bar

Thanx for your help coderz !

using the auto scale screen option works as a temp fix until they see this as a possible solution.

Yes, I'm raising up dead theme :) but... I can't see something like this now in 2011.

So, I made some changes to vesion's 1.0.8.2 source code (Windows). Now autoscroll (like 'Radmin') works in client window (not fullscreen).

I've added this function to ClientConnection.cpp
void ClientConnection::CheckScrolls(HWND hwnd, int x, int y)
{
ClientConnection *_this = helper::SafeGetWindowUserData<ClientConnection>(hwnd);
INT MoveOffset = 16;
INT SX = 0;
int SY = 0;

int W = _this->m_cliwidth;
int H = _this->m_cliheight;

INT OffsetW = W / 6;
INT OffsetH = H / 6;

if (x < OffsetW)
{
SX = -MoveOffset;
}
else if (x > W - OffsetW)
{
SX = MoveOffset;
}
if (y < OffsetH)
{
SY = -MoveOffset;
}
else if (y > H - OffsetH)
{
SY = MoveOffset;
}


if (SX != 0 || SY != 0)
{
_this->ScrollScreen(SX, SY);
}
}
and call it on mouse move event + in special timer.

This one is sweet! It works! But I cannot find "file transfer" function that I usually need in this build? :D

What's wrong with file transfer? "File transfer" button still present on main window's toolbar and in window's system menu (when remote control is active)

Yeah I don't think file transfer is compatible between 1.0.8.x and 1.0.9.x. Which stinks.

UltraVNC Viewer 1.0.9.6 with autoscrolling:
http://codename33.ru/projects/vncviewer ... .04.15.zip

Compiled with Visual Studio 2010 (may be redistributable package needed, I don't know :) ). I haven't DirectX SDK (and I don't wanna install it), so I removed experimental directx support from code.

File Transfer works (as it works in client version 1.0.8.2 from same toolbar button) with 1.0.8.2 server.

Damn, CodeName33, you've contributed more in 3 posts than I have in a thousand!

Rudi, can this feature be incorporated into the mainline? It seems like a rather essential feature to me...
