Förändringar v2.7.7 -> v2.7.10

• TightVNC Server
• Now all displays are shown in Viewer when monitors are connected to different graphics cards, rather then showing only one.
• No more cursor disappearing or freezing when an application window controlled remotely is dragged by its title bar.
• TightVNC Viewer
• Added detection of a Windows key press (alone or in combination with other keys), as well as Alt -Tab combination in the full-screen mode.
• Improved a File transfer window: file listing in the directory is now case insensitive.
• Added sorting of files by Name, Size or date Modified either in ascending or descending order.
• For both Server and Viewer, performance gain is achieved when TightVNC encoding is used due to accelerated JPG encoding and decoding. It is noticeable mostly on old hardware configurations.

Förändringar v2.7.3 -> v2.7.7

• Server for Windows
• Fixed a bug with multi-monitor configurations running on Windows 8. The main display can be safely set to any monitor in a row or column.
• On Windows 8, data is no longer corrupted when the screen resolution is not divided by four (native resolution for some laptops).
• No more issues on the Server side when a zero compression level is set in the Viewer settings (Options > Set custom compression level > level: 0).
• Fixed incompatibility with older versions of TightVNC Viewer (1.3.10).
• Viewer for Windows
• Fixed a keyboard bug: it stopped working after a file transfer window is opened.

Förändringar v2.7.1 -> v2.7.3

• Server for Windows
• Improved performance when the remote desktop is shown in its original size. Moreover, the image quality is now improved in case pixel-size checkerboard patterns are used.
• Fixed an issue on connection to a server from a built-in remote desktop client on Mac.
• You can safely change screen properties (resolution, etc.) on the server running on Windows.
• No more bad desktop size issues if the server is running on Windows 7 (SP1) or Windows Server 2008 (SP1) while there are no drivers installed. A server can be run on a virtual machine as well.
• Added more verbose logging (when a logging level is set to 9).
• Optimized Tight encoding to work faster.
• Increased speed of ZRLE encoding up to 25%.
• Java Viewer
• Fixed a compatibility issue with non-TightVNC servers (Mac remote desktop, UltraVNC) when ZRLE encoding is used.
• Optimized memory usage when Tight or ZRLE encoding is used.

Förändringar v2.6.4 -> v2.7.1

• Server for Windows
• If a server is running on Windows 8, remote desktop screen is updated much faster.
• Now it is possible to show a single application rather than the whole remote desktop. For that, run a server with a -shareapp CLI option and pass a running process ID as its argument.
• Now it is possible to password protect access to server settings (by default, they are accessible once the server is running). It is required to enter an Administrative password to make any changes when Administration > Ask password for each operation is checked.
• Added ZRLE and RRE encoding support.
• Fixed issues when Extra Ports are used: now clients can safely establish connection to a server.
• When a client has disconnected, pressed key states are reset on the server side.
• Fixed an issue with drawing of a cursor on the server side when Let remote server deal with cursor option is enabled in the Viewer settings. Transparency issues for a cursor are also fixed.
• Fixed a bug with desktop size after the screen DPI is changed.
• Invalid JPG data now leads to error throwing rather than crashing.
• Fixed a bug with queued and non-sent updates on desktop changes.
• Fixed a missing system libraries error on Windows 2003 (sometimes wtsapi32.dll or psapi.dll could not be found).
• Viewer for Windows
• Now it is possible to change the port the Viewer listens on (in the Listening mode) and reconnect to the server right on the fly.
• Now Viewer can successfully connect to servers that require RFB protocol 4.0 or higher (in fact, RFB 3.8 will be used to establish connection).
• If minimized, a full-screen window is now restored as a full-screen application rather than a windowed one.
• Ctrl + M command is now applicable when in the full-screen mode.
• Now correct resolution is reported in the Connection info window when a remote screen size is not divided by 4.
• Fixed invalid memory allocations that caused Viewer to crash when a Tight or ZRLE decoder is used.
• Fixed a bug with VNC session files if a port is less than 100.
• Fixed grayscale color issue (instead of a full color) when a Tight decoder is used.
• Fixed rare mouse scrolling issues.
• Fixed memory leaking when incorrect JPG data is received.
• Fixed a bug when Viewer cannot connect to a server (with Windows XP or Windows 2003) with a Unicode name.
• Now a file transfer dialog can be in the background.
• Source Code (Server and Viewer)
• Added dependencies from Windows 8 SDK. Now the source code can be built in Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012.
• Fixed issues with a Virtual Studio 2010 project file.
• Fixed a thread-related deadlock when waiting for a thread to start.
• Fixed a bug with image corruption when multiple clients are connected to a server (due to the refactored Server code).
• Fixed issues with string loading from *.rc files in non Unicode builds.
• Added correct error handling on Server or Viewer crashing (a proper message is now shown).
• zlib library is updated to version 1.2.7.

Förändringar v2.6 -> v2.6.4

• Installer for Windows: Fixed a problem where TightVNC Server was registered as a Windows service, despite that was disabled via the MSI property SERVER_REGISTER_AS_SERVICE.
• Server for Windows: New version of the built-in Java Viewer (version 2.6.2).
• Server for Windows: Refactored the desktop architecture (no changes in the functionality).
• Viewer for Windows: A number of improvements in full screen mode.
• Viewer for Windows: Fixed a problem where the viewer could hang up or crash after disconnect.
• Viewer for Windows: Fixed minor errors in Tight decoder.

Förändringar v2.5.2 -> v2.6

• Java Viewer: Built-in SSH tunneling via the JSch library.
• Java Viewer: Saving history and connection options, autocompleting the connection form with the last session parameters.
• Java Viewer: Fixed a problem with erroneous message ("Connection error: cannot write 16 bytes") appearing after pressing Close in the authentication dialog.
• Java Viewer: Fixed a bug with the viewer not showing remote screen when ShowControls option was set to 'no'.

Förändringar v2.5.1 -> v2.5.2

• Java Viewer: Introducing new full-screen mode, with optional auto-scaling, auto-scrolling and a pop-up toolbar.
• Installer for Windows: Added new MSI installer properties, to automate pre-setting passwords in silent mode.
• Server for Windows: Fixed a problem with querying local users on incoming connections. TightVNC has a feature to let local user approve or reject incoming connections. If there was no user action within a pre-configured time limit, new connection will be either accepted or rejected automatically. Unfortunately, the timeout setting did not work correctly in previous version and that could result in infinite timeouts. That has been fixed.
• Server for Windows: Fixed the Apply button in the Configuration window - it stayed disabled on editing configuration settings.
• Viewer for Windows: Fixed authentication handling in RFB protocol version 3.7. This should resolve connectivity problems with Ubuntu systems and Vino servers.
• Viewer for Windows: Fixed hang-up on changing language or keyboard layout. To fix this problem, Windows message handling has been re-designed completely.
• Viewer for Windows: Fixed priority of preferred encodings. Previous version could work inefficiently with servers that do not support Tight encoding, because the viewer could choose uncompressed Raw encoding instead of well-compressed ZRLE.
• Viewer for Windows: Eliminated 34-character limit on hostnames in the New Connection window.
• Viewer for Windows: Using correct line ending characters in cross-platform clipboard transfers.
• Viewer for Windows: Introduced a number of improvements and fixes in the user interface. That includes new commands in the toolbar and in the system menu, and architectural changes such as restoring the option to start new connections from the same Viewer instance.
• Viewer for Windows: Adjusting viewer window size on remote desktop resizing.
• Viewer for Windows: Other minor improvements and fixes.
• Source Code (Server and Viewer for Windows): Improved logging architecture. The changes will not be visible to end user, but developers will appreciate new logging system. There should be no more static methods and global log objects, so it will be easier to reuse separate components in third-party applications. Now all components work via a simple logging interface or can work without logging at all.
• Source Code (Server and Viewer for Windows): Corrected build problems in various combinations of build configurations and platforms, in both Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010.

Förändringar v2.0.3 -> v2.0.4

• Here is the list of changes in TightVNC 2.0.4, as compared to version 2.0.3. All the changes are in the server part, the viewer is almost the same as in the previous version.
• Fixed a potential security problem which could allow a logged in user to gain elevated privilegies in file transfers. This problem affected Windows 2000 systems only.
• CPU use was significantly reduced in idle periods when there are no users connected.
• Fixed a problem which resulted in wrong color rendering on "big-endian" viewers (e.g. PowerPC-based Mac viewers).
• Fixed rendering of semi-transparent mouse cursors. Previously, big black boxes could be seen instead of such cursors.

Förändringar v2.0.2 -> v2.0.3

• Part 1. Changes in TightVNC Server
• Fixed a bug which prevented file transfers from working properly under Windows 2000.
• Introducing new "error handler" which allows saving memory dumps on critical errors.
• In systems with swapped left and right mouse buttons, remote mouse events will be adjusted accordingly. As a result, the remote mouse should work just like the local one.
• Fixed a number of problems led to errors on setting service passwords from the installer.
• Not allowing to enter administrative passwords longer than eight characters. This limitation is caused by using standard DES-based VNC-compatible authentication. Previous versions used only the first eight characters anyway but it was possible to enter longer passwords and that could confuse users who did not know about the limitation.
• Fixed a problem with injecting lowercase characters when CapsLock was on on the server. Previous version generated uppercase characters when CapsLock was on, regardless of the Shift state.
• Implemented a special trick to bypass the problem with generating "^6" instead of "6" when using US International keyboard layout. It looks like there is a bug in Windows so we could do nothing better than to cook a workaround specifically for this case.
• Fixed clipboard handling with multiple client connections. Previously, clipboard contents might not be sent to particular clients in certain circumstances.
• Adjusted log verbosity levels for log messages generated by the control interface connection, so that such messages will not overload the log any more.
• Improved support for simple RFB clients that cannot handle desktop size changes.
• Made minor adjustments in the user interface. Specifically, the "About..." form has been cleaned up, and a typo has been corrected in the Configuration window.
• Part 2. Changes in TightVNC Viewer
• Fixed a number of problems with keyboard handling: preventing modifier keys from being stuck on switching to/from the viewer window; distinguishing left and right modifiers properly; sending arbitrary Unicode characters even if they were not defined in the original X11 protocol; and sending correct codes for the keys on the numeric keypad.
• Ctrl-Alt-Del combination should not depend on current ScrollLock state (which normally toggles Alt key to Meta key conversion).
• Fixed an issue with not sending update requests after choosing Minimize then Maximize on the viewer window (as opposed to the Minimize/Restore sequence which always worked correctly).
• Fixed a number of problems with saving and restoring connection options.
• Fixed user interface logic in the Options window. There were incorrect dependencies between compression-related controls.
• Improved phrasing for a number of error messages and log records in the file transfer module.
• Part 3. Changes in the Source Code Distribution
• Visual Studio 2010 is now supported, upgraded solution and project files are included in the source distribution. Versions for Visual Studio 2008 are included as well.
