Hi Gerd,

I’ve just applied your patch and play again as Lone Druid while holding the Left Ctrl button almost all of the time with no more previous issues! Now there’re no more freeze or mouse suddenly gets unregistered, it just feels responsive without any display crashes! Sweet patch! :)

The grab-all=on option also works! Although when toggling back to the host, the mouse movement still registers on the guest. So when grab-all returns the control back to the host, the mouse movement registers on both host and guest. Not a big deal actually, since the guest cursor movement mirrors what the host does.

Another thing that I noticed, that the scrolling gesture is not registered. Is it possible to pass the mouse scrolling also?

Thanks!

On second thought, the grab-all=on for the mouse mirrors host-guest part. I just noticed that it seems to still registers the mouse clicks also. I think it can potentially do what is not intended to be done on the guest while the user is still setting things up back on the host. For example, let’s say the user toggles back to the host to browse YouTube in the host Firefox and then browse other videos which means multiple clicks are happening, meanwhile we do not know or realize the mouse cursor on the guest is above the Shutdown button and he accidentally shutdown the guest while it is still processing something.
