VRDP Guest's screen resize issue

[Leonid Korokh]

Hello, I use windows 7 as my guest with 2 virtual monitors. Working area of my desktop is 1680x955 (actual 1680x1080 but subtracting gnome toolbars & e.t.c i get 955 as height ) When i use virutal box's GUI i can resize guest desktop to such area. But when i start vm w/o GUI and connect to it with rdesktop -g '1680x955' guest's screen resizes to 1680x920 and i can't change it using windows display properties. So, why do not to make VRDP server work like GUI window do? When RDP client connects it says it's window size so virtual display size can be simulated via virtual graphic card like it happens when i resize GUI window of VB. VB additions definitely installed.

For now issue can be resolved using

VBoxManage controlvm <machinename> setvideomodehint 1680 993 <displayIdx>

For VBox 3.2.12: VBoxManage controlvm <machinename> setvideomodehint 1680 993 <bpp> <displayIdx> <displayIdx> = @1, @2, etc <bpp> = 24, 32, etc

Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
