    I am connecting via a standard RDP connection to a windows server 2008 R2 terminal server. My application runs best at 1680x1050 but there is not currently an option for that within the app. Any thoughts?
     
  2. Hello NicG,
    Since the session is being run remotely at a different resolution, much lower than the resolution used locally, when the resource is mirrored, the same amount of pixels used remotely will be mirrored locally. Try to increase the display size for all items by following the steps and check if that makes any changes and please reply back to us.

    @PetrV On the iPad, the whole screen is used only for the published applications. On the macOS, the application is integrated along with the other system applications. Applying a size limitation would mean having two windows, one for the application (normal) and one for remote desktop. That defeats the purpose of application integration.
    If you want to apply a custom resolution, publish a desktop session with a custom server-specified resolution.
