Definitely making good progress.

I use this app every day in my corporate work environment. It is a solid app and does the job well. It’s snappy, easy to configure, and is very straight forward.

Something that has bothered me about the app though is that window focus will jump around while running a RemoteApp that pops up additional windows. It is more of an annoyance than a problem, but it can get aggravating at times.

Another issue I have come across are the ‘ever-expanding’ windows. In my environment, we use RemoteApps to run some programs that require Java. We have run into a problem where certain Java security dialogues will pop up and start expanding and will not stop, ever. The windows just grow and grow. Sometimes you can click on the window and press the return/enter key, and it will go away because by pressing enter/return you’ve accepted whatever the dialogue had on it (you can’t see anything on the dialogue box). Other times this does not work, but you can quickly minimize the window, and it will keep it from continuing to expand.

The one feature that it is missing right now is the ability to add multiple RemoteApp Resources like in Windows and iOS. Please add this much-needed feature!
