Description Leeman Strout 2009-09-09 18:20:08 UTC
2 of the application's hotkeys do not always work.  Minimize (Ctrl-Alt-M or Mouse-click in top right corner) and Fullscreen toggle (Ctrl-Alt-F) function on every 7th attempt.  The other hotkeys all function on every attempt.  The active session does not receive the hotkey events in any case.   The underlying windowmanager/X session running the nxclient process also does not receive the hotkey events.


Here's NoMachine's list of keyboard shortcuts:
http://www.nomachine.com/ar/view.php?ar_id=AR03C00172

Ctr-Alt-M
Ctr-Alt-F

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use nxclient-3.3.0.6 to connect to an nx-server session
2. use Ctr-Alt-M to minimize the session
3. it takes 7 presses of Ctr-Alt-M to succeed in minimizing the session



Expected Results:  
The 3 actions (Ctrl-Alt-M, Ctrl-Alt-F, mouse-click in top left corner) should succeed every time, not just the 7th time.  The other hotkeys work properly, this is really odd.

Comment 1 Leeman Strout 2009-09-09 19:24:28 UTC
Interestingly, the requirement of 7 hotkeys is not on a  per function basis.  I can press Ctrl-Alt-F 5 times and Ctrl-Alt-M 2 times and whichever is pressed the 7th time is activated.  This holds true for combinations including the mouse-click on the 'magic pixel'
Comment 2 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2009-09-21 14:48:44 UTC
This may rather be server-related, I've just tested with nxclient-3.3.0.6, and my remote neatx server, both shortcuts worked on the first try. What remote NX server do you use?
Comment 3 Leeman Strout 2009-09-21 16:01:08 UTC
net-misc/nxserver-freeedition  3.3.0.27
Comment 4 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2009-09-22 09:29:45 UTC
Also works here with net-misc/nxnode-3.3.0.22 net-misc/nxserver-freeedition-3.3.0.27 (with a KDE4 remote session).

Did it work with older versions? Also did you try with another type of remote session?
Comment 5 Leeman Strout 2010-02-15 16:48:08 UTC
This has been resolved as of following versions:

net-misc/nxserver-freeedition-3.4.0.12
net-misc/nxclient-3.4.0.5
Comment 6 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2010-02-15 16:55:48 UTC
That's good news, thanks for the update!
