Wedgedout Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Hi We've just started to roll out Lanview3 to a few client machines with the VNC MSI from the MST website, it's all looking great. But... When I preview, or when I remote into a machine, it causes the desktop background to change. Is there a cause for this?, can I rectify?
philtomo-25 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 yes, there is a check box to enable the desktop background to stay same ...hang on i will have a look for it
philtomo-25 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 file/options/show lanview wallpaper think that does it
Wedgedout Posted June 6, 2008 Author Posted June 6, 2008 In the general options I've got it set not to change the wallpaper, is there a setting I need to change on the VNC side of things?

On the CLIENT machine, there is an tick option in VNC (not LANview) to not remove wallpaper. It's in the default local system properties, under the "misc" section, top selection "Remove wallpaper for viewers". Untick it. Try that.
philtomo-25 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 ahh yes found it, in winvnc, right click on icon and go to properties, then uncheck the box "remove desktop wallpaper on client connections"
Wedgedout Posted June 6, 2008 Author Posted June 6, 2008 ahh yes found it, in winvnc, right click on icon and go to properties, then uncheck the box "remove desktop wallpaper on client connections" I'm using the MSI that comes from the MST site, and I don't think there's an option to do that
Guest theeldergeek Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I'm using the MSI that comes from the MST site, and I don't think there's an option to do that In VNC, not LANview (?)
Wedgedout Posted June 7, 2008 Author Posted June 7, 2008 In VNC, not LANview (?) Yup, in the packaged version of TightVNC from the MST website.
Guest theeldergeek Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 Yup, in the packaged version of TightVNC from the MST website. TightVNC is a tad different to the VNC I'm using (UltraVNC) so I can't help in that case. My version has a clear option to not remove the desktop background.
