No way to customize geometry of vncservice

[doug-w]

This is more of a feature request but it would be nice before calling into vncserver that we can set some environment variables for the the-geometry parameter. Pycharm in 1024x768 is 'challenging'

novnc should be running at whatever resolution your screen is set to, so when i access pycharm on my screen set to 1920x1080 resolution i can see pycharm is set to match this, and as i resize the window so the resolution changes for the remote screen running pycharm, are you perhaps using a vnc client as opposed to novnc?.

Yes, I see that if I use the provided URL for novnc (resize=remote) then it does resize correctly.

I looked into it more before replying to this. Apparently it's a feature of tigervnc server that NoVNC uses behinds the scenes. And only the tigervnc viewer supports it. Once I switched to that it works perfectly as I resize the window. It may be worth a line in a README about it.

Thanks for all your work. I've also put a lot of time into novnc apps and really love seeing it shown off.
