Try to resize a window of console VM to VIC

I'm under ESX3i and connect to my virtual machines with VMware Infrastructure

Customer (VIC) on a Windows XP computer. Virtual machines running XP or Windows

Server 2003.

I select a VM to VIC and click on the launch of Virtual Machine Console.

I then resize the window of console for one more big size, then click on the "see - & gt; Menu item fit Guest now.

I get the error "Resolution not supported for comments - cannot resize the comments resolution to match the size of the window."

As far as I can tell, I have the latest VMware tools on the VM images,

and have had the same problem with 2 different VM. Two of these virtual machines

have been able to resize with success when running under VMware Server, but

Since their conversion on my server ESXi, I can't resize the

Windows.

Worse still, in virtual machines, if I go into the display properties of Windows, I

can only set the maximum resolution to 1180 x 885, and it is both

the XP and 2003 VMs.

Any ideas?

RDP is not the size of the console is limited  Use RDP to connect to servers and/or client XP, and you can have the size as needed.  The console is not necesarilly designed for big screen, because it is limited in buffer size to 4 MB.  Others have managed to increase this limit, see here: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/90634

  • resizing the window active to see bottom of page

    I chose the wreck more than the monitor recommends, and have updated the drivers for the graphics card and monitor. I played with the "active title bar" without any solution to this problem, I can not hide my taskbar using the up/down arrows with my mouse.

    Which particular program window? all program windows? even in maximized windows?

    1. try to resize the window by dragging the top edge of the window down, and then drag the window to the top.

    2 or attempt to open at least two windows, do a right click on the taskbar, on the shortcut menu that appears, click on "Cascade Windows", "Show Windows stacked" or "Show Windows Side by Side". If it will work, you will see small windows, then you can drag the edges of the active window to fill the screen.

    3 Alternatively, click the active window on the taskbar, click on 'Move', and then use the "Up" arrow key to move the window to the right. The first step on the arrow that the window will be locked to your mouse cursor, you can use the mouse to move the window, and then left-click on the desired position, simply use the arrow at the start key.

    3. to hide the bar tasks, right-click on the taskbar, click Properties, on the bar tab tasks, click to check the box in front of "Auto-hide the taskbar".

  • Programs freeze after moving/resizing of window. (Win7)

    When I move/resize a window some program that it is, the program crashes.  At first I thought he just happen when I moved something of my primary monitor in high school, but later discovered that it appeared on my screen as well.  This happens with all the programs I tried (Word, Excel, Firefox, Chrome, ITunes, many others).  I can reduce and enlarge the window by using the buttons in the upper right corner, but if I try to resize the window by entering the border it crashes.  The program crashes if I move a window.  The only way to close a program once it arrives is via the Task Manager.  I noticed that this only happens with a specific user account.  Any suggestions to fix this?

    If the problem started recently, I would use the #1 on this page option.  If it does not go to the #2 option.  I suggest not number 3 or 4.

  • Black artifacts when resizing browser window

    • Hardware Acceleration (disabled)
    • I did a clean install and restored my previous profile (number still present)

    Since the zoom, which forces a repaint, corrects the display at least temporarily, you can try to disable OMTC, a feature introduced in Firefox 33. Here's how:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the layers and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled to true to false

    Any difference?

    Note: I read in a bug report at the time that this change causes problems with the YouTube HTML5 player, if hardware acceleration is disabled, then you may also force the Flash on YouTube if you keep this setting. You can use an add-on for this: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-flash-video-player/

  • can't resize the window of firefox, so I can create the shortcut on the desktop

    I don't know how to resize the window smaller, it only makes the impression of the page to the smallest, on the page, not the whole outline of the page, so I can move the symbol to put on the desktop! I used the page resizing in the menu, is there another way to do it? Thank you

    You can see the 3 buttons at the top right of the window frame: (_) to minimize, maximize/restore, close (X)? If these buttons are not visible, Firefox may be in mode "full screen". The F11 key toggles between the normal modes and full screen.

    When you use the middle button on the title bar that toggles between maximized and resizable, is visible in the lower right of the Firefox window? If so, you should be able to click and drag up and to the left to resize the Firefox window. If it is off the screen, you should be able to resize the window in two steps: drag the upper left corner of the window down and to the right, and then drag the window to the top of the screen.

    Not sure it's the right answer, but please give it a try.

  • When I resize my window (smaller size mobile) my vertical scroll bar disappears if I'm less than 800px wide.

    It was in version 9.0.1 and now 10. I resize my window to test how my site looks like smaller screens (iTouch, iPad, etc.). Any suggestions? I don't have this problem in version 4.0.1 I serve up to this point.

    Which can happen if there are items on a toolbar taking a specific space.

    You can try to hide the toolbars when testing to see if that helps (view > toolbars or Firefox > Options).

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • I have Firefox 6. How to resize the window to download? It is currently optimized, but I want to work with a small window by default. The size option is grayed out.

    I have no possibility to change the size of the current download window or to set a new default download window size and position.

    If you can't resize the window (try Alt + space) then you may need to reset the toolbars.

    Hello

    Was the HP works well before game console? If Yes, then do you remember any hardware/software changes, after which the problem started?

    Method 1: I would say you put the computer to boot and then check if the problem is caused by any third-party application.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Method 2: I would say as you uninstall and reinstall the HP game console and check to see if it helps:

    Uninstall or change a program

  • Resizing in Windows Explorer preview pane

    When I try to resize the preview pane in Windows Explorer, it is almost impossible to get the spinner as the "access zone" (not sure what to call this Sweetspot) should be very low.  If I can get the double arrow and hold down the left button of the mouse the spinner turns into a single arrow.

    I have the same problem with the preview pane of Outlook.  When I get the double-headed arrow, hold down the left mouse button and drag... opps!  It is therefore more a double arrow.

    Your supposed to hold down the left button of the mouse / less than your left-handed?

    Then, you would need spend the right-handed left buttons of the user functions.

  • Cannot resize the window as we have after the new update for Firefox

    This morning, Firefox installed an automatic update, and after that, I can't resize the window to a smaller proportion. First of all, let me explain why I do this.

    We have a local Web page to work where we can keep track of some of the statistics, and it is the only area that I need to post. This area I used to reduce the FF window, move until it was in my opinion and freeze it above all other windows (custom AHK script).

    The problem now is that FF resize to the size, it stops at a certain minimum width. Height is no problem, I can resize the height until he is "gone", but the width to a static limit stops.

    Example: Earlier I was able to resize to 500px width, but now it stops at 700px width and will not go lower. Earlier, this could go, like, 10-20px width.

    A bug, or is there a reason for this?

    It's because of Bug 897160, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=897160.

  • Cannot resize the window to size full screen

    I just got my new mac mini, and I can't resize the windows as I want.  I place my browser at the top window and use the arrow down to resize height screen entirely, but it goes only to where would be the dock. BUT I moved the dock to the right.

    How can I fix?

    What now the option key and the Green hit button? Does it take all the screen real estate?

    A lot of times little glitches of this kind can be solved by a simple reboot of the machine

  • In 4.0.1 if I have firefox several windows open, when I try to close a window, he closed everything. Why I can't close just a window at once?

    I open multiple Firefox Windows so that I can quickly Alt-Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to the tabs. When I close one of my windows of Firefox, the browser closes all windows of my. What will happen to the 'Farm' function under the file tab? Why have I not able to close only one window at a time?

    How you try to close the window?

    For some reason any (?) close the command window appears only in the file menu if you call using Alt + f. The hotkey Ctrl + w still working to close the active window. And the Red "X" on the window title bar should always work to close this window.
