From this mailing list discussion: windows key and forward them to the server.
The Virtual-Key Codes shows VK_LWIN
as 0x5B and VK_RWIN
as 0x5c.
Looks like we will need Python and SetWindowsHookExA. Alternatively we could use pyhk. (meh)
This is for win32, not sure what we can do for X11 without grabbing the keyboard..
Mostly done in r12226, still TODO:
Super_L
and Super_R
?)
AltGr
and have a better workaround? (#1119)
XPRA_FORWARD_WINDOWS_KEY=1
(I don't have time to make a command line option and do all the man page updates that go with it)
Tested using xev to see the Super_R
event server side, I cannot test with the left hand side windows key because my virtualbox VM does not pass it through to the guest.
@afarr: mostly a FYI, I don't think you want to capture the windows key in your setup. New beta build uploaded. Feel free to test or just close it.
@johnss1221: there are windows beta builds including this change - does this work for you? (see comment:2 for enabling it)
Not heard back, so I'll assume that this works as expected.
@afarr: feel free to test or just close.
Tried to test a little, but I'm not sure what windows keyboard commands I can expect a fedora server to know what to do with.
Maybe maxmylyn will test with a shadow server... in any case though, I'll close this.
This is now enabled by default when grabs are active, see ticket:1195#comment:1
