Sooo......brand new Alienware 17" laptop with a 4k display (upgraded from 1920x1080). Many of my VM's are running in 1024x768 or 1280x1024 ish size screens. The old C# client scales but the console is just broken. It doesn't display properly at all.
The VMRC in the web client displays ok, but does not scale at all. No zoom function. So it's the size of a post-in on my screen. When you resize it (which doesn't work well anyway), it's actually changing the resolution on the fly inside the client. Which doesn't make anything bigger.
I've got workarounds for RDP, and I use Screenconnect which works perfect, but consoles (especially linux consoles) are nearly non-functional because of the size issue.
Oddly enough, the OLD web client displays BEATUIFULLY, but the mouse / keyboard don't function properly
VmWare support useless at this point, does anyone have this running properly? I may actually have to return this laptop and get one with the lower 1920x1080 screen.
