Resolution settings work different in Linux and Windows

[linxpatrick]

I am using a Linux host. When using Linux guests and selecting “Resize Remote Screen”, setting a custom resolution and it doesn’t matter if “Match the client resolution upon connecting” is set or cleared. The remote desktop opens at the specified resolution and the window sizes to match the desktop.

With Windows remote desktops if the same settings are made with “Match the client resolution upon connecting” checked, upon logging in the remote desktop resolution shrinks to 640X480 or possibly 1024X768. If “Match the client resolution upon connecting” is cleared, the remote desktop opens at the custom resolution but the window doesn’t resize to match the size of the desktop.

Hi. Can you please verify that the resolution you want to use on the remote desktop (Linux and Windows) is listed among resolutions supported in display settings?
