Strange behavior of Send input as unicode option
Hello. I hope you can help me with my issue, because I'm out of ideas for now.
On fresh installation of RDM on Mac OS there is some bug with Russian keyboard layout with Send input as unicode mode: instead of correct letters its print some strange set of numbers/letters. Here full keyboard layout typed in notepad (on Russian and English layouts):
I'm already try to change layout in Mac settings (Russian, Russian-PC). Now its rolled back to Russian:
Also try to use different keyboard layout in RDM (both connection settings and programs settings)
Aaand found something strange: when I select some layouts RU-KZ for example (which actually native for my region), automatically selects Africaans (Namibia) layout:.png)
For interest try to add some other Cyrillic layouts on my Mac - same issue with any layout, and same letters send to windows.
If just disable to use Send input as unicode option, Russian layout starts working.
I have second Mac OS device with same config and version os RDM, and its work fine.

Hello,
We will look into the issue, but it seem the images you sent were not loaded so I can't really distinguish anything for now.

That was strange..everything was fine in preview. I guess I fix pictures in first message.

Hello,
We have been investigating your issue and we have been able to reproduce it. We will let you know when we have a fix ready.
Until then, you can try to set the "sandboxing" setting to "no" under File -> Settings -> Types -> RDP. This seems to fix the issue, but because it can make RDP less stable, it is not viable in the long run, so we will keep looking for a fix in sandboxed mode.
