Scaling and Resolution Problems in WVD
virtualmanc Well, it took me a few to find the 10.3.11 client again. It's found by following the link here from the WVD documentation - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/connect-macos This then links you to the App Store and 10.3.11. Screen shots of release notes from 10.3.9 to .10 to .11 attached.
All that said, none of the releases 10.3.9, 10.3.10, 10.3.11 or even the new beta of 10.4.0 solve my original posted issues. My RDP sessions still go full screen regardless of the host pool's RDP settings and the scaling settings and icons are missing from my app's ribbon bar. I am sure there is something I am doing wrong/need to update. I appreciate the help!
Thank you!
TTMGT3In the RDP client, have you turned off Use Default Settings? That's the only reason I can think of that it's not using the RDP settings set on the hostpool.
I don't know much about Macs, but the resolution and scaling in WVD is taken from the local machine, so I'd recommend checking (assuming you haven't already!) if there is any increased scaling/text size set locally. I had a similar issue in WVD where an application was not showing fullly on the screen, it turned out the user had changed scaling on the local Win10 computer to 125% (changing it back to 100% and restarting the WVD session fixed the application not displaying correctly).
tilikumtim Hi. Sorry for the delay in response.
I have tried using the default scaling settings for my display on my Mac but I still have the same trouble. No icons showing. The Mac OS Remote Desktop app doesn't seem to have any settings to allow me to set the desktop size for a Workspace machine.
TTMGT3Again I haven't used the mac client, but according to the docs there should be an option to change the resolution: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-mac#customize-your-display-resolution Is this option not there?
