ddidimc Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Hi, I've been using Synergy 1.8 for a while and it was nice, but lacking some features I would like to see. so in hope of seeing cool new features I've signed to the SN2 beta but the expereince is awful, I have a MacBook Air 2015 connected with Mac mini 2012(as host) both running Mac OS high Sierra 13.1 here are some issues: -it takes the mouse almost 5 seconds to transfer to another screen. -not all Mac f-keys work (screen brightness for example) -I have a shortcut to use caps lock as the language input changer, and it doesn't work on the client side -there is a weird mouse "smoothing" or straightning, the mouse is just not 1 to 1 as it was on synergy 1.8 also a suggestion is to send trackpad gestures between mac's, that would be an awesome feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddidimc Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 if I move the mouse very slowly I notice that it moves in completely straight lines although I am definitely not moving in a straight line... I know that issue was also present in synergy 1.8 but it was patched by a 3rd party build of synergy (and I've seen that you are aware of the issue and there is even a fix existing but there is no implementation in the official releases) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would work in Windows, have you mentioned what operating system you are using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've prioritized this for 2.0, so I'll try to get this in before Christmas. Worst case, it'll be in 2.1, which is due early next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
