Handling of AltGr+key combination #2

Open mirtouf opened 6 years ago

mirtouf commented 6 years ago

Hi,

I am using a French keyboard (azerty layout) and it seems combination of AltGr+key is not properly handled. Is it possible to detail how such combination of keys is possible ?

santosh0705 commented 6 years ago

Could you please give some more details on this. Which key combinations are not working?

mirtouf commented 6 years ago

Hi,

keys for combinations with AltGr which are not working are: & é " ' ( - è _ ç à e (for € sign)

Something important to write is that the issue has only been seen on Windows OSes.

Can't say much about it. Xterm Express is not restricting any key inputs in any way. Apart from default xterm.js key handling I only attached 'Shift + Ctrl + C' key event for copying text from terminal. Problem may be related to the browser or xterm.js itself. Try raising the issue in xterm.js project.

This is quite strange, I do not have this issue in wetty versions using xterm.js.
