Re: RC 20.3 just how stable?

For feature requests and bug reports RC15 RC16. Please use the forum at http://forum.ultravnc.net/

Until now, it's very stable on my clients... However:


1.

When shift-lock is set on the server computer, it cannot be turned off using 
UltraVnC. When you press shift lock on the client computer, shift behaviour 
is opposite: normal lowercase results in uppercase and vice versa.
This ends up in me calling the user
 :|


2.
Sometimes, keys are stuck, especially alt gr key. To reproduce:

Try connecting to a computer,
Unlock the computer, ctrl + Alt + F4,
open a command window and try typing \ from a French/Belgian keyboard 
(needing altgr + \).
=> This results in the context menu of vncviewer being opened.



3.
On Windows 2K only, Windows XP works ok:
Server keyboard: US
Client keyboard: BE / FR
=> Shift + key = mapped incorrectly.
When you connect to the server, you should be able to use the BE/FR keyboard 
normally, however, keys which require shift (like numbers on a laptop 
keyboard) are mapped incorrectly. To enter numbers, one would have to use 
SHIFTLOCK to enter numbers, turn it off to continue typing normally e.g.:

I want to type Test123@ks =>
* Typed in normally : Test!@#@ks
* To enter it correctly:
(Shift +) T, e, s, t, (Shiftlock on)123 (Shiftlock off), (Alt Gr) 2, k, s

 :x


4.
Request for a "map special keys" option (like in realvnc4)
That way (rather then scroll-lock, which results in buggy behaviour + 
inconvenient) one would be able to use the very convenient windows key + 
commands, alt + tab.

Key combination or auto hide window on top would release the keys...

Sorry for the long post....
