Is there a way, without changing the settings of the host to zoom in and zoom out? For example, if the host monitor is HUGE, I want to be able to zoom out so that I can see the full desktop without changing the host resolution properties

Hello Rob,

Sure, there is a way to adjust the Host monitor size. To do so, click the Menu on the toolbar and sel ect the Stretch view mode. The remote screen will be shrunk to fit your monitor.

Hope that helps.
Ok, I found the reboot in Safe Mode and I found the stretch, BUT it WOULD be nice if there was an actual zoom view feature.. It would be a lot more smooth if that makes any sense..
Hi Rob,

Thank you for your suggestion. May I ask, if you mean some sort of a magnifying glass feature?
Yes or a slider
In one tool I used to use, it had a slider or percentages
Hi Rob,

We will add your suggestion to our wish list. Thank you.
Thank you
