Bug Description

For both Ubuntu or Windows, the windows of the guest OS that has focus, does not support the following function:
- resize the windows
- the menu is not displayed in Ubuntu

So in the example of the screenshot the mouse pointer should have changed shape and remmina/windows should have allowed to change the window size, but it does not. In all cases I have to accept the default windows sizes. The problem is with remmina, since rdesktop does allow to change those window sizes.

I can confirm that the cursor never changes shape when on a windows corner, so it's very difficult to resize windows. Please fix: remmina on 11.10 was almost perfect, on 12.04 has still too many bugs (963764, 952964, 967385) and sometimes the connection get closed.

BertN45, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue with the latest version of remmina in Precise, or a later version of Ubuntu?

If so, please execute the following via a terminal as it will gather necessary debugging information:
apport-collect 967385

As well, please provide click-for-click steps to reproduce this problem, as well as the OS you were trying to remote into.

This is not reproducible in Vivid to Vista, or Trusty.

Thank you for your understanding.
