Windows 10: RectangleF.Width has different values in local and Remote desktop in c# windows forms

• RectangleF.Width is giving different values in physical login and remote desktop login.
• This issue is observed with Windows 10

Code snippet used in the sample is below


private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
using (var stringFormat = new StringFormat(StringFormatFlags.MeasureTrailingSpaces))
{
string text;
RectangleF textRectangle;
Region[] regions;
using (Graphics graphics = textBox1.CreateGraphics())
{
text = textBox1.Text;
Font font = textBox1.Font;

textRectangle = new RectangleF(0, 0, int.MaxValue, int.MaxValue);

CharacterRange[] characterRanges = { new CharacterRange(0, text.Length) };

stringFormat.SetMeasurableCharacterRanges(characterRanges);

regions = graphics.MeasureCharacterRanges(text, font, textRectangle, stringFormat);

textRectangle = regions[0].GetBounds(graphics);
}

foreach (Region region in regions)
{
region.Dispose();
}

richTextBox1.Clear();

richTextBox1.AppendText($"Text : {text}" + Environment.NewLine + "RectangleF Properties:"+ Environment.NewLine);
richTextBox1.AppendText($"RectangleF.X : {textRectangle.X}" + Environment.NewLine);
richTextBox1.AppendText($"RectangleF.Y : {textRectangle.Y}" + Environment.NewLine);
richTextBox1.AppendText($"RectangleF.Height : {textRectangle.Height}" + Environment.NewLine);
richTextBox1.AppendText($"RectangleF.Width : {textRectangle.Width}" + Environment.NewLine);
richTextBox1.AppendText($"RectangleF.Right : {textRectangle.Right}" + Environment.NewLine);

}
}

  • Control Panel\System and Security\System, Click "Remote Settings" on the left side
• 
  Verify my port forwarding settings were properly forwarding to my computers local IP address
  
  • run "cmd.exe" and then type "ipconfig". Find your IP from that list

remote desktop connection

You will need to analyse the various stages that form part of the remote desktop connection. This will require some time and patience.

A remote desktop connection consists of these components:

• A host (which must run Windows Professional). This is the machine that you wish to control.
• A client (which can run any version of Windows). This is the machine that you work on.
• A link that connects the client with the host.

Is the host on the same network as the client or is it on a different network?
