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.
Description of problem:
Connecting to a VM using remote-viewer and spice and later disabling and then reenabling automatic window resize results in window being rather small.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-viewer-0.5.3-1.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect to a running VM (it doesn't necesarilly have to run vdagent)
2. Disable auto resize (view -> Automatically resize) (it should be enabled by default)
3. Enable auto resize
Actual results:
Window gets resized, and it's rather small, VM has to be scaled
Expected results:
Size of the window shouldn't change (or it should be 1:1 with VM resolution), definitely not tiny
Additional info:
Happens also in RHEL 6.3
Tested just with windows guests

As the result, so VERIFIED
