Using quotations sign " from a MAC
Hi there,
we face a little but strange problem:
When accessing a Windows desktop from a MAC and you type a text:
You type a “ Symbol in front of a word (like “dear Ladies and…) it works
You type a “ Symbol after a word ( like …and Gentleman”) after you type “ the first time nothing happens but when you type “ twice like “” both Symbols appear.
Even stranger: In about 20% of the cases, it works like supposed to.
I have no MAC and depend on user feedback but the admin reporting this is reliable and usually not a Honk.
Yes, I know… First world Problems… But MAC users bother…
Is there anything we can do about the problem or should the users “Stay strong and live with it”?
Kind Regards,
Stefan

I've had a similar issue with VNC to Proxmox VMs, it appears to be a key up
key down issue (you can see it when running the keyscan tool).

it isn't a Guacamole issue, but I could be wrong about that.
Is the behavior the same from multiple browsers on a Mac, or have you
tested multiple browsers?
