Release Notes

Significant changes relative to 2.2.3:

  1. The Windows/Java TurboVNC Viewer now works around an issue whereby the operating system does not send a key release event to applications if one of the Shift keys is released while the other Shift key remains pressed. This issue did not affect the native Windows TurboVNC Viewer, since it does not distinguish between the left and right Shift keys.

  2. The TurboVNC Viewer now transmits an XK_KP_Separator (0xFFAC) key symbol rather than an XK_KP_Decimal (0xFFAE) key symbol for the keypad decimal key if the client's locale uses a comma rather than a period for a decimal symbol. This emulates the behavior of Linux.

  3. Fixed an error ("JRELoadError") that occurred when attempting to use the Mac TurboVNC Viewer app with Java 13.

  4. It is no longer necessary to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable in order to use the Mac TurboVNC Viewer app with Java 11 and later.

  5. Fixed an issue whereby, if the physical screens on the client had mismatched resolutions or were offset, the TurboVNC Viewer would not use all of the available screen real estate in full-screen mode with multi-screen spanning enabled. The viewer now properly fills all screens in this case, as long as automatic desktop resizing is enabled and the VNC server supports Xinerama (multiple virtual screens), i.e. if the server's virtual screen layout is being set based on the client's physical screen layout.

  6. The Windows TurboVNC Viewer should now build properly with Visual Studio 2015.

  7. The TurboVNC Server is now based on xorg-server 1.19.7, which fixes several minor X server bugs.

  8. The TurboVNC Server now supports the X Record Extension. This extension can be disabled, if desired, by passing -extension XTEST to vncserver.
