Hi all, really good job!

I would like to see a "scale" in the toolbar of vncterm windows (to scale at 25%, 50%, 75%, etc.)
I found myself dealing with extra-large windows when working with KVM.

For some strange reasons I have some virtual machines running on KVM and screen are too large (i.e 1440x900) for my laptop (1366x768)
when I work from linux there's no problem: I can move window.
But when working from Windows is a nightmare, I can't see bottom of vncterm screen.

Scaling vncterm content (as you can do in tightvnc or ultravnc viewers) would improve user experience's when working with KVM virtual machines.

thanks!!
 
You just need a newer virt-viewer package - any feedback from Debian, this is maybe a topic for wheezy-backports. In Jessie there is already 0.6.0.

We can think of providing a virt-viewer package for wheezy but so far we use this just internally for testing (as its not really tested heavily).
 
I'll look in to getting a virt-viewer package for wheezy that we can just install locally... Is the one you use avail to download somewhere ?
 
I was using vncterm because easy-to-use, just log in and pull the java app.
For spice it's ok on windows but debian has not updated packages, on Arch spice don't show cursor... oh well.
It was less painfull to use vncterm.

Will try spice again
