Several SSH sessions (tabs) - Special Characters Typing in Other Tabs Than the Active One
Hi,
Zorin OS here. I have this behavior when I open several tabs with distinct SSH sessions and when I try to type special characters like ' or ", i cannot see what iḿ typing in the active tab but when i switch to another tab, those characters were written there.
Regards
Hello,
Thank you for reporting this behavior.
I attempted to reproduce the issue on my end with multiple SSH sessions opened in separate tabs, but I was not able to replicate the problem with special characters being typed into inactive tabs.
Could you please confirm if you are running the latest version of Remote Desktop Manager for Linux? If possible, let us know the exact version number currently installed.
Thank you in advance for your feedback.
Best regards,

Hello Carl,
I appreciate your reply.
I'm running version 2025.3.1.1:
I'll try to update it.
As an additional information, my keyboard distribution/configuration is this one:
I'm uploading a screen recording where it shows the described behavior.

UPDATE
First i updated to version 2025.3.2.3 but the same was happening.
Then I've identified the problem is related to the keyboard distribution by changing that.
I've changed to this keyboard configuration:
The behavior is not happening anymore.
I don't know if that keyboard distribution is sending some sort of "combination" or something that was causing those characters to be sent to the other tab (the last one opened).
Greetings.

Hello,
Thank you very much for the update and for taking the time to test different keyboard configurations.
I wanted to let you know that I was able to reproduce the behaviour on my end, but only once. When I attempted to record it in order to properly document it and create a formal bug report, I was unfortunately unable to reproduce it again :(
Given the inconsistent behaviour, I will open an internal investigation on our side to further analyze this scenario.
Thank you again for the detailed information and troubleshooting steps. They are very helpful.
Best regards,
Carl Marien
