Meshcentral: Make Remote Privacy Bar Movable

[geanferrani123]

Guys, good morning!

Please, how do I move the remote access bar? I need to translate my text into my language, can you help me?

Sorry for posting this question here, I could not post the image on reddit so I am posting my question here too.

Hi. Right now you can't move the privacy bar, however, Bryan is looking into making it move left-right only on Windows.

What is your language? I can do a machine translation to get started.

[geanferrani123]

My language is Portuguese - Brazil, I even sent you the translate.json file of that language via email, remember?

About mobility this would be wonderful, I would even open a topic about it lol ..

Hi. Oh! Sorry, yes, you did send me the Portuguese translation. Once you update MeshCentral, you can set your browser language to Portuguese or you can go in "My Account" and click "Localization Settings" and select "pt - Portuguese". Then, hit "ok" and refresh the page. You should see the Portuguese MeshCentral. Let me know if it works.

I updated the Windows version to allow moving the connection bar along the X-axis within the displayed monitor region. It will be included in the next agent update.

Published MeshCentral v0.4.5-p with Bryan's change to the privacy bar. You can now move it left/right.

Related to the privacy bar, I just published MeshCentral v0.4.5-r where can set "desktopPrivacyBarText" in the domain section, for example:

  "domains": {
    "": {
      "title": "Server Title",
      "desktopPrivacyBarText": "This is a test: {0}"
    }
  }

This will be used as the privacy bar text for that domain. The "{0}" is replaced with the comma separated list of user names that have active desktop sessions, but you don't have to include {0} in the string. So you can just set "This desktop is being managed remotely" and that will work.

Feedback appreciated,
Ylian

I just updated and implemented this. Both changes (being able to edit the security bar text and moving it) are working correctly on my end.

I had to pull version v0.4.5-r out because of a bug, but you can keep your config.json file set, I will have that feature back tomorrow.

[Ylianst]

Published MeshCentral v0.4.5-s with this feature back in.

This works for me

Thanks for the report. Closing this as the privacy bar can move left and right.
