Description
- In some scenarios you may wish to open a Microsoft Access database form as full screen mode or Kiosk Mode.
- In RDP or local Console this form will fill the full screen including the taskbar
- Running Access as a published application, the form will not fill the full screen and will show the taskbar
Resolution
Solution:
- You will need to set a seamless flag to target the Window Classname of the form that needs to fill the screen
- The seamless flag that needs to be set is : “Disable MM Window Region Fit” 0x00020000
To set this flag:
- Please download the Citrix CAX Tool from : https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX222592 and place on your VDA Server
- Find out the form Parent Class by using Windows history tool: https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX109235
Example:
