             Bug #: 54277
           Summary: Change scaling behaviour in spice-gtk
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Spice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: gtk-client
        AssignedTo: spice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: alexl at redhat.com


I want to have a new scaling option where spice-gtk never scales up a display,
as that kind of magnification is rarely what you want. However, it is very
useful to scale down when a window is to small (so that you can see the entire
vm in a smaller window).

For instance, you might have the vm be in the same resolution as your monitor
so that fullscreen is 1:1, but then when you go out of fullscreen you see
everything scaled down.

Also, I don't think it ever makes sense to scale a display without keeping the
aspect ratio, that just makes things look weird.

Attaching a patch to implement this.
