Felix Uster Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Hello, I'm new to Synergy. I have a desktop-pc with Windows 10 Pro N as Synergy Server and a Notebook with Debian 8.2 as Client. The connection between the two pc's is problem-free, but on the client (debian 8.2) is a strange behaviour of the mouse if I make slow moves to the right or the bottom. If my movement is to slow, no Input is registered. If I move the mouse to the top or the left, there is no Problem. Thanks for reading and sorry for grammatical errors. May someone help me?

Jace Warner Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm having this exact same problem on my Windows 10 Pro (64-bit Synergy) server connecting to my Windows 7 (64-bit synergy) client. Everything was working fine a few days ago when I was on 1.4.18, but with upgrading to Windows 10, I took Synergy up to 1.7.5. Has anyone else come across this? It's incredibly frustrating on the client side, as it doesn't allow for precise clicking of E-mails, text, etc. EDIT: So I believe I've discovered what the issue is. On the Windows 10 server, I have a 4k monitor. Windows 10 has naively increase the size of text by 150% to make it easier to use, however this is slowing down mouse movements on the clients. I have moved the value back down to 100%, and the client is responding normally. I will try and log this as a bug. EDIT2: I was able to resolve this workaround by setting the compatibility of the exe files to Windows 7 and enabling the option "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings".

Andrew Edelsten Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Ahhh.. yes, that is the exact problem I was having (I have a win10-64 server with 4k monitor and DPI scaling with a ubuntu 15.10 client). Mouse movements left or up weren't detected or came through in a very odd manner making it hard to move on the ubuntu client. And, actually, another of my favorite utils suffers from the same issue - altdrag for Windows requires you do this for Win8 and Win10 if DPI scaling is on. UPDATE: You need to use v1.7.4 to get this to work. Higher versions currently don't let this work.. annoyingly, 1.7.6 doesn't let this work but does fix a bug when copy-pasting from client to server. So, for now, 1.7.4 allows this workaround to function and I'll just avoid copy pasting UPDATE2: Clarification, to get this to work, you need to change the compatibility for synergy[b]s[/b].exe and synergy[b]d[/b].exe (eg in C:\Program Files\Synergy) and you need to click the button to "Change for All Users" from them (right-click)->Properties->Compatibility tab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
