case and shifted characters not changed in VMware player #84

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run notepad in a VM using VMware player, workstation, etc.
2. try to use autokey to paste into that notepad

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
instead of pasting completely normally, characters pasted are always lowercase 
and unshifted (; instead of :, or 5 instead of %)

Using other paste methods does not really work as the ctrl-v is also not 
detected properly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
opensuse 11.3, Qt version, 0.71.0

Please provide any additional information below.
I have not yet tried other virtualization platforms like virtualbox.

This method of using AutoKey is not supported - you must either run AutoKey 
inside the VM or if it is not a Linux VM use AutoHotKey or similar.

Should be fixed in v0.80.0
