Version: Synergy 3 RC2
Server: Ubuntu LTS 22.04
Client: Mac OS 12.6.8
For text selection on a Mac, Command-Shift-Left Arrow (⌘⇧←) and Command-Shift-Right Arrow (⌘⇧→) work like Shift-Home and Shift-End on other platforms (text is selected from the cursor to the beginning- or end-of-line, respectively). However, when a Mac is the client, if Super/Alt are remapped, those chords don't always work. If the Shift key is pressed before the mapped Alt key, the Alt modifier is ignored. This is a regression from Synergy 1.14.6 (where this all worked as expected).
