RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Previously, the fullscreen floating toolbar the the "toggle-fullscreen" hotkey (which maps to the menu item action) had slightly different method of exiting fullscreen. The floating toolbar method unset the 'fullscreen' property on the application (which causes all windows to simultaneously exit fullscreen), whereas the hotkey did not. Consequence: This had a side-effect of preventing the display from auto re-sizing if it was fullscreened again. Fix: Both hotkey and the toolbar button will unset the application-level 'fullscreen' property when exiting fullscreen mode. Result: Same behavior when leaving the fullscreen using both hotkey and the toolbar button, exiting from fullscreen without affect the arbitrary resolution mode and letting the Guest resolution to match the windows dimensions.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2015:0295 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE virt-viewer bug fix and enhancement update 2015-03-05 17:33:00 UTC

Description Jonathon Jongsma 2014-09-26 14:11:33 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1022608 +++

Description of problem:
After running virt-viewer from RHEVM User Portal in full-screen mode and switching to window mode using the Shift-F11 keyboard shortcut, the guest resolution can no longer be changed by resizing the remote-viewer window.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEVM 3.3 is19
Client: Windows 7 32bit

mingw-virt-viewer-0.5.6-8.el6_4


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Open in Full Screen in Console options of VM
2. Open the console -> VM opens in full screen mode
3. Use Shift-F11 to switch to window mode

Actual results:
The guest resolution is not appropriately changed to match the window size. Further manual changes of the remote-viewer window are ignored as well.

Expected results:
Guest resolution changes to match the window dimensions.

Additional info:
Using the button at the top of the screen to exit from full screen mode works fine. The bug only occurs when keyboard shortcut Shift-F11 is used.

I can reproduce, but it doesn't always happen. If I leave fullscreen with the button once, then the keyboard shortcut works. Weird..

--- Additional comment from Marc-Andre Lureau on 2013-10-29 15:04:53 EDT ---

the bug is fixed in upstream, where the fullscreen/unfullscreen logic has been modified. I think we should wait for next rebase.

--- Additional comment from Jonathon Jongsma on 2014-05-30 18:02:13 EDT ---

rebase proposed for 3.5 (Bug 1103366)

Bug report changed to ON_QA status by Errata System.
A QE request has been submitted for advisory RHBA-2014:18370-01
https://errata.devel.redhat.com/advisory/18370

--- Additional comment from Marian Krcmarik on 2014-09-12 05:31:44 EDT ---

I still can reproduced the bug in following steps:

1. Set Open in Full Screen in Console options of VM
2. Open the console -> VM opens in full screen mode
3. Use Shift-F11 to switch to window mode -> resolution is adjusted.
4. Use Shift-F11 to switch to full-screen mode -> resolution is not adjusted.

It works properly when using virt-viewer full-screen button instead of keyboard shortcut.

1. Set Open in Full Screen in Console options of VM
2. Open the console -> VM opens in full screen mode
3. Use Shift-F11 to switch to window mode
4. Use Shift-F11 to switch to full-screen mode 

Result:
resolution is adjusted after step3 and step4

As the result, move this bug to VERIFIED.
