"Windows Anything".  Happens with Windows Server 2003 (SBS, Standard,
and Datacenter), Windows 7 Pro (x86 and x64), Windows Server 2008 (SBS
and Standard), Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2012.

Interestingly, watching it again as I type this (and double-checking
with Server 2012 as a target), I notice that for a split second after
hitting the "1" button, it *correctly* resizes the height to the height
desired - and *then* resizes it to the maximum height of the DE that
Remmina is running in.

I am using "Custom Resolution" in the connection preferences (usually
1024x768); for what it's worth.

Also: when the window first opens, it almost invariably doesn't render
any content (just stays solid black).  I have to manually grab the
window and resize it a few px (either horizontally or vertically works)
before the content renders.  This also happens on every target OS and on
multiple source machines (I use Remmina extensively on my own four
personal machines, and sporadically on 40-ish servers.  All Ubuntu,
either Precise or Trusty.  All of them behave the same way.)

Title:
  remmina "1" button broken in Precise

Status in remmina package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Broken on my recently-upgraded-from-Oneiric workstation:

  Suddenly, clicking the "resize window to remote display" button (the
  "1" button) in a Remmina connection results in a really bizarre,
  stretched-taller-vertically-than-my-monitor window with nothing but
  featureless grey in the middle of it.  It's basically screwed from
  that point on out (right-clicking the window handle on the taskbar and
  maximizing will at least bring the display visible, but all the
  controls - including tabs to select different sessions - will still be
  missing) until I close remmina and delete the preferences file from
  ~/.remmina/.  After deleting the prefs file and restarting Remmina,
  things will be back to normal - but if I click the "1" button, they'll
  screw right back up again.

  It didn't do that in Oneiric! :)

  Note: not sure if it's relevant, but I'm running lubuntu-desktop.
