My synergy setup is a Windows 7 x64 server and an iMac client.
The problem I'm experiencing is that synergy prevents click and drag actions in 'some' windows applications.
I notice it most often in photoshop - while synergy server is running I am unable to apply a mask or use any paint or rubber tool for more than a single click.
The problem also occurs to a lesser extent in other programs, i.e. in ms word I am sometimes unable to highlight text using the mouse - no problem if using the keyboard though, and since I mostly use the keyboard it doesn't bother me so much, however rearranging the text with a mouse is difficult.
Understandably its somewhat irritating to have to quit synergy - which otherwise works perfectly - just to apply a mask or rearrange some text.
The problem goes away the moment I close synergy server and comes back when I start it up again.
Anyone have any ideas how that might be fixed or is it a bug?
Is this the bug: https://github.com/synergy/synergy/issues/3784?
