Vadim Dyachenko Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Hi. I've bought Synergy just earlier today - from the first impression, works quite better than Mouse Without Borders. I've quickly bumped into a small problem though. I have two devices - a desktop computer (server), and an average-sized x86 tablet (client). Both are running an English version of Windows 8.1 32-bit. Both have two input languages - English and Russian. The problem is: 1. Switching languages (set to Ctrl+Shift, if that matters) while on the client machine doesn't work as intended - indeed, it switches the language, but if the server' language is set to English, it'll continue sending English text. What is the expected course of action about this? 2. If I change the language to Russian while on the server, switch to client, and try typing something, Cyrillic characters will not successfully "get through", turning into question marks "?". Numbers and punctuation still work correctly (and with keyboard layout differences in mind). I assume that this is an encoding problem, but I haven't found any way to adjust it neither in the options nor on text_config wiki page. Quite curiously, at the same time copying text via clipboard works though. I would imagine that this would be more or less of a common and easily resolvable problem, but so far I was unsuccessful in my searches by related queries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Kuzmin Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 +1 ! Server's keyboard visually change input language on "client", but really print language, that set on server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jung Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 similar problem here. OSX 10.12.6 server, Win10 client. Works fine when server's input language is set to English, but no output registered when server's input language is in Korean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziman Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Same issue here. Dose not the issue solved yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmytry Kulkov Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Exactly the same problem. If the server ENG on the client ENG and perklyuchaetsya ENG-RUS. If on the server RUS, on the client RUS and does not switch. This is very disturbing. I bought the paid version, I thought everything would be fine on the last build. But this is not the case. This is bad, can anything be done about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seonghyeon Kim Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Hello! I have similar trouble. my configuration: Server: macos big sur - synergy 1.13.0 stable Client: Windows 10 64bit - synergy 1.13.0 stable I use capslock for change input language on mac. when I use hangeul 2-set input methods on mac, synergy keyboard sharing not works at client (synergy keyboard sharing only works at mac server's input method is English.) and when I pressed caps lock at client to capitalize chars, macos server input method has changed and keyboard not works at client.

Seonghyeon Kim Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 and I think synergy is not designed to multiple input methods environment. at windows client, Korean IME input methods using right alt to change language and it also not works. I hope synergy team has priority to this... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
km-link Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 @Seonghyeon Kim Same here. Also having trouble interchanging between English and Korean. Seems like someone already worked on this a few years ago? https://ommokazza.blogspot.com/2017/07/synergy_19.html I don't know why the official build doesn't have this fix yet.

OchaBanana Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Hello, Today I just bought Synergy and my version is "synergy_1.13.1-stable", still got this problem. Both machines are Windows 10. Once I move cursor to a client then I press "alt+shift" to change language between Thai<>English, the system in a client shown the language had changed already but when I type the language it's automatically change back to be same language that the Server used. Scenario-1: I used English in a Server then move cursor to a client, press "alt+shift" on a client to change to Thai everything looking good but when I type it's has back to English Scenario-2: I used Thai in a Server then move cursor to a client, press "alt+shift" on a client to change to English it didn't change back to Thai in this time but I got only "???????" when typing even I change to Thai in a client I still got only "???????????" when typing.
