Strange Remote Desktop Connection Behavior
I am working with a user and found a rather odd behavior with a Windows 7 RDC connection to a Windows 2008 R2 server. We have it using all the monitors she has, so in this case, a Laptop Screen and a Desktop Monitor, desktop extended. The laptop screen, obviously smaller than the Monitor that she has as the primary.
Now the strange behavior is this. When she moves her cursor towards the laptop monitor side, usually in the boundary that is not part of the laptop size, the screens displace, literally shift as if you are panning the screens over. Another way to describe it is the screens are panning, and you see the laptop screen slowly shift over into the desktop monitor.
Just so you know, in the display part, when you tell it to use all your monitors, you can't resize your screen. And you can only do the multi-monitor RDC to Windows 2008 R2 servers or Windows 7 machines.
This is with an Ienovo Thinkpad, an X201. I've looked at everything and can't explain why it would do that, but I can't get it to replicate on other computers, even a Dell Latitude E4310 with Windows 7. Just wondering if anyone has seen something similar happen
