MacOS Option Key -> Linux Windows Key macOS Apple Key -> Linux Alt Key Caveat: I do not want to remap the keys directly on my secondary laptop (Ubuntu) settings because the physical (local) key maps should remain consistent and familiar. I only want the keys to be remapped when I'm controlling Ubuntu from the macOS physical keyboard. Please do not respond with advice on how to remap physical keys directly on Ubuntu, I already know how to do this, but do not wish to. Grammarly for mac office. Likewise, the Windows keyboard's Alt key is where you expect to find the Mac's Command key. If you're used to using the modifier keys from your old Mac keyboard, you're likely to run into trouble for a while as you relearn the key locations. Issue #2: I was unable to find links on Symless.com to any documentation whatsoever. I'm certain this is not an unusual request and I'd rather not trigger an individual support ticket that just gets repeated over and over. Hiding the forums behind a 'Help' button that looks more like a 'Support Ticket' isn't the right way to do this. Please update the website main navigation to include direct links into installation, FAQ or troubleshooting content. Issue #3: I found this forum from external search engine results, and was immediately blocked from searching anonymously by some message that indicated I need to wait 4 seconds before performing another search, but in reality, I was not permitted to search after any amount of waiting until I signed into the forum with my account. Please update this error message to more accurately reflect what's going on. Issue #4: I was able to find (here and elsewhere) that indicate I should be able to double-click on the machines in the Synergy configuration screen. ![]() Unfortunately, this does not seem to work for me and might be a bug in the latest Synergy that might have been caused by macOS High Sierra? In any case, double clicking the machines in my server configuration interface does not seem to do anything.I eventually found this post and found the following issues here. Just in case anyone else runs into this issue with a Windows + Mac configuration, here's how I have mine set up and what it does. Steps: Click 'Configure Server' Double click on the Client Machine Under 'Modifier Keys' on the right side of the window, here is what's what. Shift and Control are the same for both. Alt = Option (on Mac) Meta = Command (on Mac) and Windows Key (for Windows) Super = Function (on Mac) I've attached a screen shot of my setup, here's how the keys line up for me. Left side will be Windows, Right side macOS. Control = Command Alt = Control Windows Key = Option Hopefully this helps if anyone is setting this up in the future!
