Hi.
Could you describe those scenarios with more details please? By having more information we could better understand your needs and evaluate if available NoMachine server configurations could help, or plan features offering new possibilities.

Hi.
Can you verify if your Windows server supports the resolution 1378×764? You can find the list of available geometries in Windows display settings. It would be great if you take a screenshot of the combo popup listing them.

Hi Mick.
You can prepare a configuration file template, customize it through AppleScript and open it to execute NoMachine client.
Start the connection wizard by pressing the ‘New’ button and create the default configuration. You’ll find it in the Documents/NoMachine folder.

These are the fields you’ll need to customize:

<option key="Server host" value="%IP%" />
<option key="Session" value="unix" />
<option key="Desktop" value="console" />
<option key="Custom Unix Desktop" value="application" />
<option key="Command line" value="%SCRIPT%" />

%IP% is the IP or hostname of the server, while %SCRIPT% is the command or sequence of commands to execute on the server.
After you create the temporary connection file with such configuration, use it with this command:

open <path to the NXS file>

Is that enough or you would like to customize more options?

Hi. Thank you for sending logs, we’ve identified a possible problem and we’ll follow up soon with a testing version.

Hi. Keep Control and Alt keys pressed while resizing the window, you’ll notice the new size strictly follow the server’s geometry ratio. Is that helpful?

[Tor]

Thanks. If you didn’t change the connection policy on the server, the client will already select automatically the running virtual desktop assuming that (a) the connecting user is the owner of the session, (b) the name of the current session (the one you see in the main client interface) is the same of the one running on the server (the one you see in the list of running desktops) and (c) there is only one session with that name running on the server.
Can you confirm if all those conditions are met?

[Tor]

Hi.
Is the ‘active’ session a physical or a virtual desktop? What is the NoMachine product running on the server? Are you using latest NoMachine version?

[Tor]

NoMachine can’t possibly know all the GTK theme names someone may use and then guess if light/dark would look better?

What you suggest is what NoMachine does, but there is a problem causing the theme to be incorrectly parsed in your environment. We’ll fix it soon.
In the meanwhile you can work around the issue by replacing the red icon with the dark version:

sudo cp -a /usr/NX/share/images/tray-ubuntu.png /usr/NX/share/images/tray-linux.png
sudo cp -a /usr/NX/share/images/tray-ubuntu-faded.png /usr/NX/share/images/tray-linux-faded.png

Disabling client side post processing is a side-effect. Doing it always improves the performance a bit. In fact, among the other things, we are working on a better deblock filter. Despite this, the issue you are facing is a specific macOS problem occurring on monitors supporting wide color gamut. We’ve identified the operation wasting the CPU time and we will shortly release a fix for it.

I have the same problem on macOS 10.14. Not so bad because I can just start NX manually, but still.

Hi. Your problem may be a little bit different, so we’d like to check also current server/node logs. Please run the following commands in a Terminal window:

cd /Library/Application\ Support/NoMachine/var
sudo tar -czf NoMachine-log.tar.gz log

Compress as well the log of the failed process I see in your home directory:

tar -czf nxclient-logs.tar.gz ~/.nx/F-M-*

Thanks!

[Tor]

Hi. NoMachine selects the icon color depending from current theme. Please send here the output of the following command executed in a terminal window:

gsettings get org.mate.interface icon-theme

 

[Tor]

Hi. We’re not aware of such an issue, but it would be nice if you could contact us on forum[at]nomachine[dot]com to receive a client debug version. It would be helpful to collect some data in order to understand why the client cannot match the server stored settings.

[Tor]

Hi there, I am having this same problem. Please see attached image.

Hi. Could you kindly execute this command in Terminal (located in Applications => Utilities) on the machine where you don’t see the icon?

tar -czf nxclient-logs.tar.gz ~/.nx/M-*

Send to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com the TAR.GZ archive. We’d like to check if you’ve problems with the image file. Thanks.

Hi.

Would it be possible in future to develop a NoMachine Android app that utilizes all available screen space?

Current version already implements immersive mode (the way to use the full screen area), but we had to disable it because it was causing issues with positioning the extended keyboard. Unluckily Android doesn’t offer a programming interface to know the geometry of the virtual keyboard, so we had to find solutions based on application layouts which clash with immersive mode. We’ll release a version addressing the issue very soon, so immersive mode will be available again.

Hi Larry. Thank you for sharing more details about your environment. The smaller window size is caused by the scaling of 125% you’re using on that monitor. You could verify this workaround:

• Right-click the NoMachine User Interface shortcut and select Properties
• Select the Compatibility tab
• Check the box “Override high DPI scaling behavior”
• Select “Application” from the combo under “Scaling performed by”
