Description Jan Grulich 2021-11-10 12:02:59 UTC
Tigervnc 1.12.0 has been released with many improvements and fixes since the previous version released a year ago.

Most notable features are:
* The native viewer now supports full screen over a subset of monitors (e.g. 2 out of 3), and reacts properly to monitors being added or removed
* Recent server history in the native viewer
* The native viewer now has an option to reconnect if the connection is dropped
* Translations are now enabled on Windows and macOS for the native viewer
* The native viewer now respects the system security policy¹
* Better handling of accented keys in the Java viewer
* The Unix servers can now listen to both a Unix socket and a TCP port at the same time
* The network code in both the servers and the native viewer has been restructured to give a more responsive experience
* The vncserver service now correctly handles settings set to "0"
* Fixed the clipboard Unicode handling in both the native viewer and the servers
* Support for pointer "warping" in Xvnc and the native viewer, enabling e.g. FPS games

¹ except when GnuTLS is statically linked
