mRemoteNG 1.70 Release Candidate 2 Now Available

[rmcardle]

1.70 RC creates a new, numbered config backup each time it is run.

It needs to manage those backup files in some way, to limit the number of backup copies.

It's limited to ten.

I don't know if it started happening in RC2 or one of the previous test versions, but I've noticed you can no longer rearrange connections within a panel. Are others having the same problem?

Do you mean by dragging the tabs around? If a PuTTY connection has focus when you start dragging, you sometimes won't see the tabs change as you drag, but once you let go, the tabs do move.

I'm not quite sure we are talking about the same thing. I'll try to illustrate. Let's say I open connection 1, connection 2, connection 3, and connection 4 in a panel, in the order that I listed them. But say I want to move connection 4 in between connection 1 and connection 2 so that the order of connections would be 1, 4, 2, and then 3. I use to be able to do that but in RC2 I can no longer "rearrange" them. Does that make sense?

Yeah, that's what I meant. I am unable to reproduce this. What kind of connections do you have open? RDP? SSH? What version of Windows?

All SSHv2/Putty. I'm on Windows 7 Professional. I did just upgrade mRemoteNG to RC3 and problem still exists.

OK. I figured this out. The fix will be included in 1.71 Beta 2. The fix has too much potential to add other bugs so I won't be adding it to 1.70. As a workaround in 1.70, click on the mRemoteNG window title before dragging to make sure that mRemoteNG has focus and not PuTTY.

Workaround works, thanks for looking into!
