Duplicated by: Support #3392 - Client Mac Gestures are not working

Moved trackpad from screen 1 to screen 2
Did 3 finger up slide, 4 finger pinch

Actual: Nothing happened.

Versions (Synergy, OS):

If gamepad support is being worked on I think more emphasis should be put on multi touch gestures as they are becoming more and more ubiquitous.

To be clear, trackpad gestures are completely non-functional even on the server itself while Synergy is running. Synergy must be exited before gestures will work. This pretty much makes a Mac desktop with a trackpad unusable at this time.

Gestures on the server with synergys running work in 1.3.8, but it appears that that got lost in 1.4.

Just confirming the feature does not exist in 1.4.7 on OSX Lion. I am running 1.4.7 as the server on my Mac OSX Lion side and 1.4.7 as the client on my Ubuntu 11.10 side. Everything is great except no trackpad gestures are working mac-side. Much appreciated on the hard work and great software!

Revision 1175 introduced this problem. Reverting that commit from the source allows multi-touch gestures to work again on my MacBook Pro 17's trackpad.

An alternate fix would be to limit the allowed types to be NXLASTEVENT + 2, as the three-finger swipes I am most familiar with (left and right swipe) are the next two values above NXLASTEVENT.

I've grabbed the latest Nitely 1.4.9 1390 issue remains.

Something I would like to add is that with this once the :NOTE: Ignoring Out of Bounds Quartz Event type: 0x1d [max 0x1c] shows in the log up and down scrolling with the magic mouse is broken as well.

Can't find a nightly that built properly for 10.7 in order to test this fix. Builds are broken for all platforms except windows

Just tried with rev 1432 for mac 10.7, still not working. I'm seeing Has this been patched? I thought it was. I see in the log:
NOTE: Ignoring Out of Bounds Quartz Event type: 0x1d [max 0x1c]
or
NOTE: Ignoring Out of Bounds Quartz Event type: 0x1e [max 0x1c]

installed synergy on my MacBook (server) and Win7 PC (Client), was really excited about how seamlessly it was working until I discovered this bug. Trackpad and Magic Mouse are both out of business, is that patch available somewhere I can easily grab it, or when is the next release expected?

Thanks!

Does one of the daily builds have the patch? (tried the latest available as of 6/19 for mac but it still quits scrolling after a bit) Love synergy, and it's still easier to start and stop it when i need to access the peecee, but i'd rather not :)

Hey, I tried the latest Mac nightly and the gestures still don't seem to work. What is this patch I am reading about? Any way I can contribute let me know.

Thanks!

#19

23 Jun 2012 21:25: Eduardo Habkost wrote a comment.

The patch won't add any gesture support (I mean, the ability to send gestures to other machines). It will just avoid breaking gestures in the server machine when synergy is running (and cause issues like bug #3195).

Where do we get this patch and how is it applied? Would love to have gestures working on my trackpad...

Short guide (I'm on Lion 10.7.4. and it works); - Download and install latest beta (http://synergy-foss.org/it/download/?file=synergy-1.4.8-MacOSX107-x8664.dmg), do all these steps with synergy closed. - I assume you already have installed latest XCode version from app store. - Install homebrew or macports (I used macports), and from that install cmake, either "sudo port install cmake" or "sudo brew install cmake" from terminal - Install wget if you don't have it (macports: "sudo port install wget", homebrew: "sudo brew install wget") - From terminal, "wget http://synergy.googlecode.com/files/synergy-1.4.8-Source.tar.gz", then "tar xvfz synergy-1.4.8-Source.tar.gz", then "cd synergy-1.4.8-Source" - "wget http://synergy-foss.org/spit/files/120414015309fixmultitouchgestures.diff" and "patch -p0 < 120414015309fixmultitouch_gestures.diff" - "./hm.sh conf -g1" and "./hm.sh build" - "cd build/release" and "make" it should compile with no errors. - "cd ../../bin" and last step: "cp synergyc synergys /Applications/Synergy.app/Contents/MacOS"

You can now run synergy with gestures working.. hopefully!

Can't wait until this is released as I am having the same issue - all gestures are lost when running Synergy.

@John Blinking,

Any chance you could share the patched file? Was excited to see a new release of 1.4.9 today, but disappointed that this patch wasn't implemented =(

Thank you for this patch! Worked like a charm with 1.4.9.

Applied in r1547 (thanks to Bo Jordan). Sean, sorry that you were disappointed. We did some really experimental stuff in 1.4.9 and I didn't want to destabilize the release even more, so no patches went in sadly. I have applied the patch to 1.4.10, so tomorrow you can get access to it via the nightly builds: http://synergy-foss.org/nightly/

Running latest beta (1.4.10) on --> Server: 10.8.1 MBP --> Client: 10.7.4 Mac Mini

Gesture suport works just fine on my Server but I get nothing on the client side. Was this bug supposed to fix client side gesture support as well? Is there something in preferences that needs to be enabled?

I'm also running the latest beta (1.4.10) on --Server MacPro (10.7.4) to a client: 10.8.1 MacBook Air and the gestures don't work on the client. Should this be expected to work?

#34

2 Feb 2013 16:19: Eli White wrote a comment.

I'm confused as with the other last two posters. This ticket was specifically for enabling gestures on the client. But that isn't working, it appears that the patch fixed gestures on the server, but not client?

#35

8 Feb 2013 05:23: Alex Mault wrote a comment.

Yes, I can confirm. Gestures on the client side are not functioning. I am on nightly build r1693. Gestures work on server side but not client. (Server Mac 10.8.1) (Client Mac 10.8.1)

28 Feb 2013 22:41: Doug Borg wrote a comment.

I can confirm same issue on my 10.8.1 machines with Synergy 1.4.10. Gestures work great on server, but I get nothing on the client. Do you want us to open up a separate issue to track that defect?

Same here! Gestures not working on client side, both running 10.8.2 and Synergy 1.4.10.
