The main window (display #1) is treated a bit differently from other windows, since it is opened at app start and displays status messages while we attempt to connect to the remote guest. As such, it should really stay open as long as the app is running. The impetus for this change is the following: - user attempts to connect to a remote VNC display with a password - user types the wrong password - A dialog pops up indicating that authentication failed and asking if the user would like to try to re-connect. - User clicks 'Yes' - Because the connection was disconnected, all windows are closed - remote-viewer tries to reconnect again, at which point a new display window is opened, and the window gets placed by the window manager (possibly on another monitor altogether). As a user, I expect the program to simply re-use the existing window when trying to re-authenticate, instead of having the window disappear and then re-appear at a different location. This patch accomplishes that. |

Virt Viewer =========== Virt Viewer provides a graphical viewer for the guest OS display. At this time is supports guest OS using the VNC or SPICE protocols. Further protocols may be supported in the future as user demand dicatates. The viewer can connect directly to both local and remotely hosted guest OS, optionally using SSL/TLS encryption. Virt Viewer can be built with either GTK2 or GTK3, with the default option currently being GTK2. The choice can be made with: ./configure --with-gtk=3.0 (or =2.0) Virt Viewer uses the GTK-VNC (>= 0.4.3) widget to provide a display of the VNC protocol, which is available from http://gtk-vnc.sourceforge.net/ Virt Viewer uses the SPICE-GTK (>= 0.22) widget to provide a display of the SPICE protocol, which is available from: http://spice-space.org/page/Spice-Gtk Use of either SPICE-GTK or GTK-VNC can be disabled at time of configure, with --without-gtk-vnc or --without-spice-gtk respectively. Virt Viewer uses libvirt to lookup information about the guest OS display. This is available from http://libvirt.org/ Further information about the Virt Viewer application can be found on the Virt Manager website: http://virt-manager.org/ Feedback should be directed to the mailing list at http://virt-manager.org/mailinglist.html -- End
