David Woods 0 Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 I have a Surface Pro host using windows 10 and an iMac OS Sierra both on 1.8.4. After the PC has woken from a sleep the client when typing will type characters with the accent above but when i bring the cursor back to the host, the host types normal. On a previous release the client used to type double characters but only on vowels. Am I missing a setting? Or can any help? Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas Desodt 0 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I have the same problem, with a synergy server on W10, and synergy client on W7. Symptoms are the same: after waking from sleep, my server keyboard types normal vowels on the server, but accented vowels on the client. When using a physical keyboard plugged into the client, there are no accents, they only appear when usign the server keyboard on the client via synergy. This is completely blocking, I have stopped/restarted synergy on both machines several times to no effect. This is with synergy version 1.8.4-stable-a6ff907 Link to post Share on other sites
Alicia Higueruelo 0 Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Great software, it is just what I needed, but I have the same problem, client gets all the vowels with a close accent, however it seems to come and go at random (I have not yet observed a pattern), it is quite nerving and make synergy in practice unusable as I use the terminal in Mac all the time Server Windows 10 Pro, client Mac 10.11.6 synergy 1.8.5-stable-a18eba7 (build date 31OCT16) Perhaps I need to configure something that I miss?

Chris W86 1 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I have this problem as well. This might not work for everyone but I've found if i open a text editor - for me i use the gnome todo app then just hold control and type a vowel that would appear accented. Seems to go away.

Amalteia 0 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) It's 2019 and this is still an issue. The fix from Chris worked for me. Thank you! My situation is a Win10 server and Ubuntu client. Edited April 29, 2019 by Amalteia Link to post Share on other sites
Luiz Guaraldo 0 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) This still happens: Server: Windows 10 (build 1909) Client: Windows 10 (build 1909) Accents like ` (like À à È è Ì ì Ò ò Ù ù) and ^ (like  â Ê ê Î î Ô ô Û û) don't work at all, but ´ (like Á á É é Í í Ó ó Ú ú) and ~ (like ã à õ Õ) work well. Both use PT_BR (ABNT2) keyboard layout. Synergy version: 1.12.0 Edited September 30, 2020 by Luiz Guaraldo Link to post Share on other sites
glidinganorak 0 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I often have the problem that Synergy types random letters on the client screen. And not actually the same random letter, but if I press the same key 10 times I see 10 different letters. And then sometimes it works. I just tried to reproduce it to check if it's only in Skype or also in other apps - and at the moment it doesn't do it! But 10 minutes ago it did. Server: Windows 10 Pro Client: Windows 10 Pro random letters produced by pressing the same key Both use DE_DE keyboard layout. Synergy version: 1.12.0 Link to post Share on other sites
