4) What about good ol' right click -> rename?  I'm lazy

Going to be implemented along with F2. Actually F2 is fasted, after you select Rename command you would have to use a keyboard anyway

6) (new) Could the 'Execute Remote command' be multi-threaded?

Certainly, this is something to look forward for in v4.0

7) (new) a Column in the main screen to show the currently logged on user.

It was planned for initial v3.5 release, but didn't make it. But later we will add it to the v3.5 branch.

8) (new) On the main screen, if I click on the VNC circle of a PC, it opens a VNC connection, whereas, if I click the RDP circle, it opens a RDP connection.  Same thing for the VNC connected and RDP connected indicators would be nice.

Sorry what circle? ...hmm may be because it's too late here, will try to figure what you are talking about in the morning

9) (new) On the tabs of connected computers.  If a connection is a VNC connection, let the little picture on the tab be a VNC sign.  If the connection is RDP, let it be a PC sign.  BTW, I really like the icons in this program.  Not quick and cheap looking at all, very professional.

You mean the icon should be a remote screen or just a VNC logo? If you are talking about screen, then it gonna be too small to make any sence. And if you are talking about a loge.. the problem is that there are no standard one. Which one to use ?   Currently in case of RDP connection, we use standard RDP icon used by MS.

10) (new) A way to set VNC to 'View Only' be default on connect.  There are some settings, like on the Deployment Wizard (I think) with a checkbox for that.  But it either does nothing, or not what I thought it does

You can set this setting in the registered computer properties. You click on the VNC Options button and after that switch to Settings tab.

6) :p

8) The colored circled in PC's row showing green or reb or blue depending on Service State.  If I double-click the VNC circle, I'd like it to open a VNC connection; and if I double-click the RDP circle, a RDP connection.  Same for the VNC and RDP pics next to the colored state circles.

9) Yeah, a logo.  I don't care if its the same VNC logo you use on the main PC list. (big V, little n and c)  I just want a fast easy way to see what kind of connection a tab is.

10) is there a way to set this by folder?

This raises few questions: what if the circle showing failed status? or if there is no circle at all? Meanwhile you could use keyboard shortcuts to initiate corresponding connection

ok. will be changed in one of the upcoming builds.

10) is there a way to set this by folder?

Not yet. But I think after v3.5 gets released (in a couple of weeks) we will be adding feature to set all registered computer settings, except address, on per group basis. This one is going to be in v4.0 for sure.

8) Hmm, no circle?  I haven't seen that, lol.  As for a red circle, well I can think of two approaches:

A) The program already checks for a open port to determine the color.  If it is red, there is nothing for it to connect to. You could set it to display an error message, "VNC Server is unreachable on the selected computer. Click here for ways to fix this." or some such.  The other step for that would be to have the program perform a refresh of the status on the selected computer before the connection attempt is made.  The program would adjust the displayed status of the remote service if nessesary, and perform the appropriate action - error or connect.

This is so the status is service on the remote PC is accurately displayed.  Otherwise, we would run into the problem of the program connecting because sometime ago it was online, but now its not (program says its online, but won't connect me); or 30 minutes ago it was offline, but now it is (Why does it connect? It says red).

B) Attempt the connection on click, regarless of past state.  If connection fails, change the circle to red (if was green).  If the connection was red on connect, but the connection was now successfull, change it to green.  If no change, well change nothing on the screen.  If connection fails then error, if connection works, well, then it worked.

Each is a reverse of the other.  If you think there is another obstical to having 'Quick Access' icons, let me know.  It is one step less than the right click when going for the non-default connection   I have to say, I use each (VNC, RDP) about %50 - %50.

Thanks for everything. s-code is awsome
