-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, I'm having troubles getting the ALT-key to work properly in VirtualBox as a modifier in applications like Photoshop for things like the clone tool, it isn't recognised as the ALT-key. (No discussions about my need for these proprietary apps please, there are valid reasons for my need for those, I'm not happy about it either). This has been a long-standing problem when using Linux as host systems and is related to aspects of the window management. In previous systems the culprit was that ALT+dragging left mouse button was set to move windows around in Linux, this interfered with the function of the ALT key in the virtual machines. Now using Arch (GNOME3) I have tried several things but haven't found a solution yet. Here's what I've tried: - - Use GNOME tinker tool to disable the window action-key (or assign the super key for that) - - Use GNOME tinker tool to switch the assignment of the ALT and Windows keys - - Tried several different settings in VirtualBox in regards to the capturing of mouse and/or keyboard None of these things - which used to provide a solution in the past) worked, but I have to admit I haven't used a virtual Windows system with Photoshop on a Linux host in probably five years so things might have changed quite a bit. Any pointers from this list? thanks, Klaus - -- Klaus Doblmann M.A. PGP: 43F89A1B -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJXgNiPAAoJEJArGOi/1wqdejsH/AtddpGWCLTEe+6XqgXji73P bCkTfhdKFqDGO0rRgov8j3I4cAMWm63IVrQDxVqvRoAxklPQrLSkaj/GKCCvbJ9T Dr3NEJldqhTMyrSB1ezm6qRCAI8D73lTika6EHmpOst3g+tLmfj+/O8XMlG88gMt Vam2a40MPTYhQWLAZxSkYg92pAk6n3bHrzMRSEu0n/PLJMNSDC27ajE6kMUap4oT QGXsubG8oUYpXvJcUeTBCfGE7c7eGocqZmCrjUJT2Z4SAV31oIsAxswz0Z/OV7pE /8tpwQK6lMNmh1FTjfzdcvzBntds9zGB5ElgYtRyEM94UmNipsE8IDwBiGM8M90= =JHCG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
