Bug ID: 442169
Summary: Unlocking remote control inputs on the desktop app
requires pressing left and right mouse buttons at the
same time which is impossible on many devices without
a mouse
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: korbe...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Unlocking remote control inputs on the desktop app requires pressing left and
right mouse buttons at the same time, even if there's no mouse device present.
This is probably a poor choice as it's impossible to do that on many laptop
touchpads (and tablet devices). I couldn't find a way to change this setting in
the app.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a paired (Android?) device
2. Choose "Remote input"
3. Click the Lock button
4. The cursor disappears and it asks to press left and right mouse buttons at
the same time to unlock it, even if there's no mouse device present
5. Alt+F4 out of the application
OBSERVED RESULT
I only way I could get back the control over the cursor is by pressing Alt+F4
and exiting the application.
EXPECTED RESULT
Unlocking should default to a key combination which is available on all
devices.
It would also be great to be able to change this key combination in the plugin
settings.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
