History of changes
2019-11-11 - Optimized processing and display of bitmaps.
- Synchronized with latest sources from GitHub.
2019-10-23 - Fixed a bug due to which the contents of the RemoteApp windows
were shifted up one line.
- Changed RemoteApp window ordering control in the stack.
- Synchronized with latest sources from GitHub.
2019-10-03 - Support for RDP8 graphics pipeline (see command line options /gfx
and /gfx-h264). Not tested with remote applications.
Check if RDP8, RFX and GFX features are activated on the server,
sometimes they are not:
gpedit.msc 'Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates >
Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services >
Remote Desktop Session Host'.
- This build does not require a kernel and processor supporting AVX.
- WPS class: Option "Asynchronous update"on page "Protocol" removed.
New option "RDP8 graphics pipeline" added.

mode when scrollbars existed. Fixed.
- Prevent infinite reconnections when a remote application fails to
start.
- Removed OS/2-specific feature that allows you to immediately
disconnect when closing the last window of a remote application.
This no longer works with the latest source codes. Now the
connection will be broken by the server, as it usually happens in
FreeRDP on other platforms.
- WPS class: The negative coordinates of the window were
incorrectly maintained. Fixed.
- Synchronized with latest sources from GitHub.
2019-03-27 - Processing the missed command to hide remote application window.

- msoffice.cmd: The unique disk name and "minimize" configuration
variable to minimize initial window.
- WPS class: New page Graphics 2/2 (Floatbar).
- WPS class: The progress window is not listed in the window list
until it is visible.
- WPS class: Check box "Create an initial window minimized." added
(page RemoteApp).
