Hide "noVNC_control_bar" when using the virtual keyboard?

[Febtw]

docker-baseimage-gui version: 4.3.6

When using the virtual keyboard, "noVNC_control_bar" blocks out some area of the page. But if I close the "noVNC_control_bar", the virtual keyboard is closed with it.

I think the noVNC of recent version is able to use the virtual keyboard and have "noVNC_control_bar" hidden. The following noVNC is installed through ubuntu 20.04 repo last month, but I don't know how to find the version of it.

I have tried to update noVNC to 1.4.0 according the Dockerfile of "docker-baseimage-gui", but fail to use.

So if I understand correctly you request, you would like the virtual keyboard to remain active when closing the control menu. Do you see the same behaviour with version 4.2.2 of the baseimage?

I was not aware of the new version of noVNC. I will have to integrate it.

Yes, I would like the virtual keyboard to remain active when closing the control menu. And yes, I see the same behaviour with version 4.2.2 of the baseimage.

The startapp.sh has only one command /usr/bin/freeplane %F .

Ok, I did more investigation on that and from what I understand, you should get this behaviour with both noVNC 1.3.0 and 1.4.0. However, this behaviour can be easily adjusted, so the next version of the image will have the fix for that.

Thanks a lot!

This should be fixed with version 4.4.0.

Yes, new version is good!
