Popular Post none069 6 Posted December 7, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2017 How do I know you are not recording or sending any information outside of my network? Also why is this auto configuring, I should have access to the configuration and advanced settings such as not using a cloud service. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
Aaron Moore 0 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I think this is their way of trying to monetize their app. For example, i used to run this on my laptop so that the adjecent computer could connect to it... but as it is now, I don't even see how I'd switch the config when I move from home to office because of the "auto" "cloud" thing.

G. James Berigan 1 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 You can override the cloud service configuration by setting your synergy.conf file immutable on the machine acting as host (man chflags). At least, you can if the host machine is macOS or Linux. I don't know if Windows has an equivalent setting. It's a fancy form of file locking. For different locations, assuming there is only the host overlapping, a customized config file may be able to have multiple destinations for the same direction and only the one that actually exists would work. Otherwise, maybe home machines are configured to the left and work machines to the right? Or the left 50% and right 50% from the top of the laptop if they're al up? Or using a script to swap configuration files before running Synergy? Again, it would need to be immutable to prevent the cloud configuration from overriding/overwriting.

JOSE ALEN 0 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Hi, as many other users, i'm concernt about the cloud service requirment. it would be great if you just add an installing option to manually set this for the users that want this feature and leave the option to disable from scratch for the rest of us.

EDIT: Just read that this will be a added feature in 2.1 thanks Quote Kelvin Tran :Posted November 8, 2017 (edited) If you are posting about any of the following issues/concerns, please note that the response you will most likely get from the community is that these features are coming in Synergy 2.1. Without further ado... - Less reliant online mode - "Tinker-y" Settings panel - Removing and renaming a computer on the grid - A more polished uninstallation script - One-click updating process - Making the window size and elements dynamically adjustable - Tray icon for quick access to settings - Offline mode (YES!) - Better UI icons and labels - Better OS support (older versions of OS X (now named macOS), etc.) - More reliable cloud - Minor glitches and crashes (ex. with Chrome crashing on activation and Firefox not working in some instances) _________________________________________________________________________________________ The following changes will be exclusive to Synergy 2 Pro users. - Drag and drop file support - Copy and paste file support (ex. Ctrl + C a Word document and Ctrl + V on the other system) Note for this that you CAN copy and paste text and images on your clipboard. Just not entire files. - Synchronization of locked status and lock screens - Wake-on-LAN (magic packet, wake one system to wake all) - Screensaver Sync (similar to Lock Screen Sync) - Audio Sharing (share audio output between speakers of all systems) - Different computer profiles (ex. one profile for surrounding systems at work and another for the home) - Wrap around edges of computer layout - Key swapping - ex. mapping Ctrl to Cmd, etc. And as an added bonus, note that developer support (something similar to an API) will be added in Synergy 2.2 or 2.3! If what you want isn't on this list, go ahead and post it in the "Feature Ideas" forum and a Synergy team member will review your suggestion. Link to post Share on other sites
