2017-03-07 14:49:14 Pete Woods description Below see the information from Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com>. Currently in when you resize the virtual display in qemu (with QXL/spice display) the unity8 screen resolution stays the same. However in e.g. Gnome3, the shell is informed of a suggestion to change size, and complies. There appears to be an emerging de-facto standard in virtual displays as described below by Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com> from VMware.
