Keyboard issue


Recommended Posts

 

I am having an odd issue where when I move from screen 1 ( the server) to screen 2 (host) and back to screen 1 my keyboard is getting switched? Some of the keys work normally but others are not the correct character when typing. For example the a becomes q. I can usually "fix" the problem by going back to screen 2 and clicking then coming back to screen 1 and clicking. But sometimes I have to restart the computer to correct the problem. I do not have this problem if I stop Synergy. Both host and server computers are Windows 10 computers.

Hi @Ryan71. Please provide more details about your machines (OS, 32/64 bit, Synergy version installed, connected to the network via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, specify which one is the server). Also, post a screenshot of both machine's Synergy interface and the Server Configuration interface on your server machine.

So that screen named "Desktop" is not an actual machine right? If so, please remove it.

Also, can you try v1.9.0rc3 instead? You can get it from the tagged forums thread below.

No. The screen Desktop is Computer 2. The center screen N7RYN-Dell is computer 1 and Toshiba is my second laptop that isn't always on. When i have noticed the problem the Toshiba has been off.

I see, can you move the Toshiba screen one box to the right when if it's not turned on? This triggers the other machines not to look for that machine when they try to establish a connection. 

Have you tried v1.9.0rc3?

I loaded v1.9.0rc3 on all my computers and moved the Toshiba config one box to the right. I removed and rebuilt the configuration on all computers. Both systems have been restarted and the problem remains. When moving between screens it is messing up the keyboard.

Additionally I have noticed that at times I cannot click an item on the Desktop screen without going back to the N7RYN-Dell and clicking on the screen at random first.
