Reported this 5 weeks ago whilst in beta, obviously wasn’t picked up!

In the url you can pass a fullscreen option which at least gets rid of the border and sizing issue.

/gui-v2/?fullscreen

There is a setting “Remote console appearance” setting in the new UI its settings → General → Display & Appearance menu? When set to auto, it will follow the browser preference. When set to “Same as GX display” it won’t. Make sure it is set to “Same as GX display” and GX display appearance to Dark.

Can you check which version you are running by accessing the service menu. Press and hold for 5 seconds the bottom left corner of the display, then a side menu is opened, at the bottom of that menu the app version is shown. Latest version is v1.01.

I was having the same issue. That fixed it for me.

Hi,

The remote console will not give the option “ same as GX display” any reason for this, same issue on a mk2 cerbo on a different site too?

Since its forced by VRM you need to change it in the VRM settings

The point I was making, whatever option is selected in the VRM preferences gets reflected in remote console, in the ideal world it would be nice to have the option of VRM in light mode and remote console in dark mode and vice versa!
