Hi all,
if the "neo2" German keyboard layout is selected on the host-OS, then the major UI problems are experienced:
1. Mouse focus between guest and host is totally inconsistent, clicks are not caught neither on guest-OS, nor on host-OS.
2. CTRL and ALT keys are getting sticky both on guest-OS and host-OS. For example ALT-Tab on host-OS brings the application switch dialog that remains on top forever. Maybe other keys, like Win-key are also sticky -- it is difficult to test.
If one selects a plain "En" keyboard layout on host-OS, then things are almost OK, however neo2 layout on guest OS is not fully working: the right AltGr key is not working.
Are there any solutions/workaurounds for this issue?
