Translating Keyboard Inputs

  2. Anydesk App

For international users connecting from one language zone to another, AnyDesk has a feature for translating the keyboard layout.For example a user in Poland using a polish keyboard layout can connect to a machine in France which is using a french keyboard layout and work regardless of the different keyboard layouts.In most cases there is no need for user interaction with the keyboard setting. Only in some cases it is necessary to manually choose the keyboard translation mode.

The d3d renderer now supports 16 bpp colour depth as well and uses the same fallback mechanism. In some cases, AnyDesk did not transmit any image (black image) when the screen was rotated in Windows 7 with Aero enabled. The base64 password feature for anydesk: links did not work with all configurations. Anydesk is not allowing true unattended access, since always there is a prompt on device screen asking for user permission to view screen. This even after everything is setup correctly for unattended access via password. Is there anything I can do? Teamviewer seems to work. After Apple Released the 2020-002 Security Updates, some users started to report that their Mac would would freeze up when using GPU Hardware Accelerated apps or video. UPDATE 05/26/20 – Apple has just released the 2020-003 Security Update for macOS Mojave 10.14 and High Sierra 10.13. To Log Out from your Mac Click the ( ) Apple Logo and then click on the last option “Log Out.” Even if that doesn’t help, try restarting your Mac and see if you have got it working. Also if that doesn’t help, I have got one last thing to help you out.

You can find the Access Control List in the security tab of the AnyDesk settings. In order to activate access control, the security tab has to be unlocked. Use the + button to add an entry. A text entry will appear at the bottom of the list.

This setting enables 1:1 mode if the keyboard layouts on both machines partaking in the session are the same and enables translation mode if the keyboard layouts differ. The setting is automatically detecting keyboard layout changes of the operating system. If you encounter problems with certain programs, please try to select a keyboard mode manually.

1:1 mode

In 1:1 mode, all keys are mapped from the local to the remote keyboard based on their position. For example, the key q on a english keyboard (qwerty) will insert the character a if connected to a machine with a french keyboard layout (azerty). This mode is not feasible for office work but it can be useful when playing games which depend on the exact location of a key.

Auto-Translate Mode

When auto-translate mode is active, all keys will be transmitted to the remote side as if the local keyboard layout would be active on the remote side. This mode might cause problems with certain programs (for example video games), because these programs process the exact key position (scancode).

Keyboard shortcuts (e.g. copy/paste) have to be used with the keys that are valid on the remote device's operating system.For example copy on MacOS with CMD+C, but paste on Windows with CTRL+V.

AnyDesk can be controlled using several key combinations.
