Microsoft Remote Desktop - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

With the Note Edge I can't display the whole Remote Desktop, it looks like the Microsoft App thinks the screen is bigger than the viewable area. I have to scroll a few lines up or down. With Note 3 I had the full screen in view. There are all the time a few lines missing, either on the top or the bottom of the screen.
ScreenShots 3 and 4 show, how it should be ...
Anyone knows, how to fix this?

I noticed the same thing, just thought that was how the app worked

I use vnc viewer but sometimes it will load like that and I will have to pinch and zoom out , to get it to display right.

HTML Email

Does anyone know if there is a fix or if its just the way it is the HTML viewing in emails is working. I've notice on some emails where I am subsribe like to Newegg's mailing list and their emails are not displayed properly. Its cut off on the right side and I have to hit the "enable right scroll" to view the whole thing with scroll bars and it gets pretty annoying. Looks like its not rendering it very well in one screen like PIE does.

Problems/suggestions I have with current HTC Sense

Not quite sure whether this is the exact location something like this should go.. but over time I've just put together a list of some issues I have with the current Sense (Mainly its apps) and changes/additions I'd like to see in further updates.
I'm using HTC Legend unrooted.
Ones with asterisk are more significant.
General
*Ability to select default location on sd card to be used by apps for cache/data storage (so root is not clustered with folders)
*Option to choose whether the long press home button action shows recently used apps or currently running apps - latter could be more useful.
*Built in flashlight app which uses camera flash as a torch (so I don't have to root. Don't see why HTC doesnt have this already.. very practical and useful)
Ability to change timestamp on Footprints. For creating footprints of past events/locations.
When manually selected network becomes unavailable, the screen annoyingly switches to the mobile network list to choose a new one, annoyingly interrupting any current tasks. Will continue to switch back to network list periodically if you ignore it. Show alert in notification bar instead.
Allow selecting/copying of text in sms messages. (select text in long press menu)
Allow manual selection of location for weather (seems to not update location until I'm connected to some form of internet.. even though it can figure it out from GPS/phone network)
Sometimes time on clock widget and notification bar are not synchronized (when traveling between timezones, notification bar has manually selected time of the new location, widget keeps time and weather data of previous location)
360 degree rotate angles (does not go landscape when rotated clockwise)
Interface
*Turning page animation for clock widget, hero has it, looks better (doesn't work on my Legend, seen a Desire where it doesn't turn pages either, must be because of the updated 2.1 version.. defeats the purpose of the page-looking background though)
*When pressing home button or otherwise going back to home screen, have a transition effect where current window minimizes to center of screen with home screen objects coming in from the edges when (like effects in nexus one). Currently the home screen sort of slides in from the side... the minimizing and fading into the centre looks much more appealing
*Nice looking orientation rotate effect when rotating phone (like iphone)
When in pinch zoom out mode on home screen (where you can see small versions of each home screen), allow the dragging and re-arrangement of the order of home screens. (Touchwiz is adding this feature, LauncherPro does I believe, need to keep up with the competition)
Music
Re-do cover art display, there's room to move things and make album art larger, have a nicer looking display with maybe 3D effects, something similar to Itunes Cover Flow
Smooth, fast scrolling through cover art without changing song until actually pressing on album.
When pressing search button in library mode, search all fields not just one currently active.
Music sync capability of htc sync.
Be able to select album art from sd card/search online.
Photo
*Display color gradients better. (currently sometimes shows gradients very badly, rough and obviously ugly, same for picture set as lock screen wallpaper)
*Be able to choose which folders to find media (so it doesnt pick up all the images used by apps etc)
*Be able organize albums e.g. folders within folders.
*Separate videos from photos - have separate tab thing down the bottom, like where it has Albums, Facebook etc, for videos
Better updating when SD contents is modified, takes forever and initially leaves doubles of media and albums, shows nonexistent albums until finished.
Better caching - not show "searching for media" loading notification every time even if the album list had been loaded seconds before. Especially since it does not properly search for and detect new media.
Add option to add folders/search/refresh manually.
Allow creation of custom albums.
Camera
*Easier switch between camcorder and camera like nexus one and iphone camera app with constant visible slide toggle. The slide out options bar is laggy and inconvenient to change between modes.
*Audio record quality in camcorder is terrible - atleast at high volumes. Recording video at a concert and the sound was so distorted it was impossible to distinguish any of the music, while my relatively cheap Powershot camera recorded it fine.. a phone's mic should be better than a camera's right?
*Use volume rocker for zooming in and out (currently does nothing in camera mode), screen swipe zoom is often unresponsive
People
For a contact links, often does not keep selected display name.
Typing in a phone number of a contact in the global search (press search button while on home screen) does not find that contact
Ook thats it for now. I just wanted to put this up to see if anyone had similar ideas/problems, maybe ways to fix certain ones. Also is there any place to suggest this kind of thing directly to HTC? Silly I know, like they'd care about the opinions of one whiny guy, I can imagine how much emails from people begging for things in updates (see user KISS1 on these two threads:

Sense Previews

I've recently started using the stock launcher again, due to a problem of my default home not sticking for some reason. The only thing I really miss is gesture support (zeam, adw), which allowed me to quickly access notifications and previews (to jump to different screens quickly without scrolling). I've mediated my desire to access my notifications quickly, by hitting menu while on a homescreen and tapping notifications (I find this faster and more convenient than pulling it down from the status bar), but I haven't found a way to quickly access previews (other than hitting home when on the default screen). I don't have much use for previews from the default screen since I'm not far away from any other screen. I'm looking for a quick way to access previews so that I can pull them up and jump from screen 1 to screen 7, for example. Long time Sense users, is there a way to do this?
Pinch from any screen.
Yeah you just pinch zoom outwards on any screen to see previews.

[Q] hidden screen starting to appear

Lately my phone has been randomly be getting a glitch where the screen looks like its trying to scroll to another page (as if im scrolling through my home screen). Most noteabley is that the notification bar extends on and has orange text, also I should say it only glitches/slide to the right. I can recreate this event if I open snapchat and scroll over the friends tab. I believe it might have somthing to do with the notification bar though I have yet to find anyone with a fix. Does anyone have an idea what I could do?

Side Panel orientation

Howdy all,
Unless I am missing something. Can the messages scroll in the same orientation like the clock at night. Example if you have cnn streaming the words run along the main screen. I would have liked it run away from the main screen if I have the edge laying flat on a table and looking straight at it. Hope I explained it well enough lol.
Yes, kinda
If screen rotation is on, you can check the box for 180 degree rotation in the edge panel settings. This will rotate the edge panel correctly with the phone.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work without auto rotation on, which I don't like.
