RDP on MC75A...small texts

Hi all,

Some customers are still using Remote Desktop Mobile to run there application on the small screens. Unfortunately some of the coders use application screen layouts hard coded to QVGA (240×320). Now with a VGA capable Windows Mobile...like MC75A device they get weird screens on the device. The client (Remote Desktop Mobile) sends the server information about there screen sizes. As a VGA device can display 480×640 pixels, the hard coded 240×320 applications only use a quarter of the screen. The texts are very small and more or less unreadable. Doesn't anyone have faced on a similar problem?  Thanks

I have a customer that ran into the same issue on the MC9190.  They run an application through RDP that was written for the MC9090, so it was coded for QVGA.  On the MC9190 everything is smaller.  We found a modified RDP client EXE that forces the client into QVGA mode (see http://www.hjgode.de/wp/2011/09/05/remote-desktop-mobile-on-vga-devices… ).  The attached CAB will install the modified RDP client and then do an auto warm boot.

Give this cab a try ( http://andrewblock.net/2008/04/14/remote-desktop-software-for-windows-m…;). Please find attached. I a Spanish forum I read there is a default.rdp file on \windows which can be edited. In this file there are two interesting lines that might be useful: DesktopWidth:i:240 DesktopHeight:i:268 I have not tried it yet I hope this helps.
