In Synergy 1.4.16 you can hold down two modifier keys (e.g., Shift and Command) simultaneously.

In 1.4.17 the second modifier key supersedes the first, so if you hold down Command and then Shift, it releases Command.

This is verified using the keyboard viewer from system preferences.

Is this a known bug? Is there a work-around; i.e., a way to get two modifier keys to be in effect simultaneously?

  • I am experiencing the exact same issue. Best example is that I can't take screen captures (Shift, Command and 4). Have you figured out a way to solve this problem? – Steve May 01 '14 at 20:44

It looks like the Synergy team fixed this problem in Synergy 1.4.18

As of this posting, 1.4.18, is not available as stable release yet, but can be found in the Nightly Builds section

I had the exact same problem, and just upgraded to 1.5.0: I can use multiple modifiers once again!
