[jira] [Updated] (GUACAMOLE-121) Ctrl/Alt key combinations not working

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-121?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

J-M Roth updated GUACAMOLE-121:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
If you are working fast (actually using the keyboard to more than type text and not use the mouse to click all the time) you definitely need Ctrl/Alt+key combinations to work.

For example when searching something in the browser, you want to use Ctrl+F for "find" (and not go and click around in the menu, how retro is that). The same goes for Alt+key of course.

I understand that the event will go to the local browser, and not to the application inside Guacamole, however something should be done to improve that (provide at least some keyboard combination that simulates the use of those keys).

(As a sidenote: can "Ctrl-W" be trapped, such that the guacamole window is not closed when used? ^^)
