== RANDR support? ==


Please update the following items and change the category of this page to CategoryProposedFedora10 once they are completed.  The feature wrangler's have a watch on this page and will see your changes.
Is there already something like RANDR support to dynamically change the resolution by for example modifying the client window size?


# Please change the dependencies section to reflect other packages,etc. that this new feature will rely on in order to be implemented. Why would anconda be ''required to use TightVNC"?

# Please complete documentation section. It could be as simple as a few good URLs to upstream's documentation

== A suggestion on toggling full screen mode ==
 
Currently we have to press F8 (take xtightvncviewer for example) first, then move the cursor to "Full Screen" and click it to toggle full screen mode, it is a boring and slow operation. For me, due to small screen resolution (1024x768), I need to switch workspaces frequently to view different contents. But after entering full screen mode, the keyboard is totally grabed by VNC, the original "ctrl+alt+left/right" no longer takes effect. Therefore, I have to repeat above steps to exit this mode first, then move to another workspace.
 
I'm wondering (1) whether we can add some special key to give up focus of VNC in full screen mode, just like VirtualBox did (they use the right control), or (2) add a hotkey (such like F8->f) to toggle it instead of selecting menu item.

RANDR support?

Is there already something like RANDR support to dynamically change the resolution by for example modifying the client window size?

A suggestion on toggling full screen mode

Currently we have to press F8 (take xtightvncviewer for example) first, then move the cursor to "Full Screen" and click it to toggle full screen mode, it is a boring and slow operation. For me, due to small screen resolution (1024x768), I need to switch workspaces frequently to view different contents. But after entering full screen mode, the keyboard is totally grabed by VNC, the original "ctrl+alt+left/right" no longer takes effect. Therefore, I have to repeat above steps to exit this mode first, then move to another workspace.

I'm wondering (1) whether we can add some special key to give up focus of VNC in full screen mode, just like VirtualBox did (they use the right control), or (2) add a hotkey (such like F8->f) to toggle it instead of selecting menu item.
