Often, combinations of keys (e.g. Ctrl-Alt-F2) are needed when trying to interact with a remote server via the KVM.

The current OSD keyboard treats each key as pressed only so long as you hold the mouse button down on it.

To perform multi-key combinations, it is necessary to be able to mark a key to be held down. This doesn't apply to most keys, but ideally, for OSD keyboard, the following keys should be toggles rather than momentary, but they should release after being sent in combination with a key not on the list (e.g. the Ctrl and Alt toggles should be released after sending Ctrl-Alt-F2).

  • Left Shift
  • Left Ctrl
  • Left Option/Alt
  • Left CMD/Pillow/Apple
  • Right Shift
  • Right Ctrl
  • Right Option/Alt
  • Right Cmd/Pillow/Apple
  • FN (if applicable)

This would greatly increase the utility of the OSD keyboard.

We will address this OSD (On Screen Keyboard) behaviour as part of the BliKVM Matrix software release.
