"Type clipboard" / "Type password" broken

Hi,

[2026.2.7.0] I just realized that the password that's typed via "Type clipboard" and "Type password" is garbled, it's not the password that I set.

Here's the password entry:

Here's what gets pasted into the session. Capital letters turned into small letters, special characters lost.

I am fighting access issues for the entire morning, and it turns out I unknowingly set different passwords that I wanted. Very annoying issue. The session is just a HTTPS website to the Supermicro IPMI session, where I work with the target server through a virtual console.

It may be an issue that RDM is typing those characters too fast, and Supermicro IPMI virtual keyboard is unable to properly "press" and "release" the virtual SHIFT key. Is it possible to set the inter-character typing delay? I was unable to find that in settings.

Hello,

I'm curious, do you get the same behavior if you auto type in notepad?

Hello

Further to what David wrote, there could be a few things going on here (I might suspect a scan code versus unicode input issue, where we've seen similar things with VMWare's remote console in web). It could also be a key delay issue like you said but I doubt it. We have some options (most of them hidden) that can tweak behaviours here.

Is this a regression? If you're on 2026.1.x for example, was it / is it working well?

Thanks and kind regards,
