Before reporting a bug, please complete the sanity checks above.
- I have done the sanity checks, and my issue persists.
Deskflow version info
Client: Deskflow: 1.26.0.0 (760e3b99) Qt: 6.10.1 System: macOS Tahoe (26.6.2)
Server Deskflow: 1.26.0.0 (760e3b99) Qt: 6.10.1 System: Windows 11 Version 25H2
When using a Windows system as the deskflow server, if I use the ctrl-c or ctrl-v to attempt to copy or paste on the Mac, it does not work as it does on the Mac keyboard. Note, I have swapped the modifier keys in the Mac to be in line with the ctrl key usage on Windows and Linux:
Build types
Official release (installer/package from GitHub releases)
Deskflow configuration
Windows 11: DF server, one monitor ("left") Mac: Client 4 monitors (T format, "Center") Fedora: Client ("right") (would be nice if i could arrange the actual monitor relative locs but not the issue)
