Shorten the length of the Top Menu bar or Delay the Top menu bar pop up time in Full Screen mode

Perhaps it would be expedient to simply short then contact area of the top menu bar when it pops up in full-screen mode. Currently, when using full-screen mode, if you aren't quick the top menu bar will pop up and obscure your ability to interact with the upper part of the screen on the remote sessions, which impacts a user's ability to minimize or close a window in the session. 

If possible it would be really nice if the top menu bar that pops up were to be shortened to accommodate unfettered access to these controls.

Improve bars behaviour

Hi, 


When you are working on a two monitor pc screen-connecting to another two monitor pc and you maximize both client windows, each on every monitor, it's like working sitting write in front of the other pc's two monitors which is very cool!!! The misbehavior of the bars in this mode ruins this functionality.

The problem is intense when you are working with multiple applications (don’t we all) in maximized view.

When you maximize your application in a maximized screenconnect client and you try to close this application you must be extremely careful about how you approaching with your mouse the close “X” button at the top right.

If you work fast, the chances are by 90% that the screenconnect client bar will pop up and you will hit the close button on this bar, thus you are closing the client.

This is extremely annoying… Especially when you are in a harry and you must reconnect, only to repeat the same mistake soon after.

Also passing the mouse from one monitor to another often causes the side bar to expand too.

 

I have to propose this solution :

 

Add  a time delay (you can set  it to be adjustable from the administrator)  of how match milliseconds will take for both bars to pop up.  This alone would do the …trick.

It would be nice also, the horizontal bar not to expand to the whole width of the screen, so the min/max/close buttons of the client will not be over the applications corresponding buttons and the bar will not pop up when hovering at the top right of the screen where usually the application close button is..

 

Another thing is not working is drug and drop between two …remote monitors.


It's a GREAT product, plese make it ...perfect!!!


Thanx in advance

Allow resizing of the drop-down toolbar in full-screen to avoid accidental drop-downs.

When in full-screen mode it is much too easy to accidentally set off the drop down toolbar when you are trying to close, maximize, or minimize a window. Please allow us to shrink the length of the toolbar to a custom percentage of the horizontal screen space. This would allow us to easily use the buttons on a maximized window without accidentally causing the toolbar to drop down and obstruct things.

The easiest way to keep the taskbar from being "set off" is to right click on the taskbar and deselect "fullscreen when maximized." Hope this helps! Let me know if you have a further request, or if this meets your needs.

Those are some frightening time spans.
