OK, that makes sense.  Because you are using full-screen mode, keyboard grabbing was enabled by default, so the scrollbar hotkeys were not active.  Setting GrabKeyboard=Manual means that keyboard grabbing is never enabled by default (but you can always manually toggle it using Ctrl-Alt-Shift-G.)

I have Windows here at home, and I still use a .vnc file for the TVNC connection. And there I had to set grabkeyboard=2 to be able to move the scrollbars by using Ctrl-Alt-Shift and the arrow keys or Page Up/Page Down/Home/End. I will see, whether I can get used to it. And I just verified, that F10 still works as desired in this mode.

Actually, scratch that.  The scrollbar hotkeys no longer work with macOS, but they still work fine with Windows and Linux clients as long as keyboard grabbing is disabled.  (The default is to grab the keyboard when the viewer is in full-screen mode and ungrab the keyboard when the viewer is in windowed mode.)  However, GNOME overrides Ctrl-Alt-Shift-{arrow keys} for the purpose of switching workspaces, so I just pushed a commit that allows the keypad arrow keys to be used as well (as long as Num Lock is off.)

I guess Java broke that at some point after Java 8.  I am investigating how to make it work again with Java 11 and 17.

Hi DRC,

using Ctrl-Alt-Shift and the arrow keys or Page Up/Page Down/Home/End don't work for me. Instead I see a reaction to these key presses inside the active window in the session. Do I have to switch a setting for these keys to work, as you wrote?

Yes, but it isn't something I can develop for free:

I posted that feature request four years ago, but no one has yet found the feature useful enough to pay me to implement it in the new unified TurboVNC Viewer.  The vast majority of TurboVNC users use remote desktop resizing rather than a fixed remote desktop size.

One possibly useful hack is that you can hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift and press an arrow key or Page Up/Page Down/Home/End to move the scrollbars.

Hi again,

(this will be my last topic for today.)

The old native Windows TVNC client had an autoscroll feature in fullscreen mode, meaning no scrollbars are displayed, and scrolling happens automatically, when the mouse reaches the screen border. This was extremely useful for me. Now with TurboVNC 3.1 this feature seems to be lost. I have to move the srollbars, when I want to work at or see an invisible part of the remote desktop. Is it possible to get back the autoscroll feature in fullscreen mode with TurboVNC 3.1 in any way?
