I've deployed a new version of Wine (wine-1.9.10-181-geda1156-ccp-master-58) that fixes the sticky control key (and shift and alt keys) when switching apps using Cmd-Tab.

You should get this version automatically unless you have explicitly selected a version in the Preferences.

Awesome. Anything else we can help with?

Maybe if you could, ask the guy/gal who handles the radial dial to fix it so it won't break and vanish tell we dock and/or change systems.

So I just am jumping two characters via the same route and shaping back and forth on screens via mouse clicks. and this toons account ended up with a sticky control key. hitting control cleared it. and let me pan my camera.

wine version is set to latest. and the launcher and wine both updated when i started up EVE today!

I've noticed a small problem since the change: ctrl acts like command, and the other way around.

Is there any chance that you can enable the "right" - alt key?

It looks like the key has no mapping - the left alt key is fine. Its the main key for left handed people :)

I've left it unmapped to allow it to be used to enter special symbols, especially on non-US keyboards. On an Icelandic keyboard, for example, you have to use Alt-Q to get the @ symbol.

Hmmm its really the most important key for me .. any chance that you let the user decide which side he wants to be mapped?

The problem is if you are left handed you have not much keys at your disposal and disabling the key beside the arrow keys is a big issue.

Do you have a keymap file somewhere in the eve/wine folder? maybe I can change it by myself?

Anyway thanks mate

This is a massive revelation for me, I was slightly worried about the lack of alt key for typing special characters on a Belgian keyboard. Thanks for pointing this out! \o/

After this patch, pressing `command` key makes Eve client frozen when I am using Korean or Japanese input mode
and I have to forcefully shut down the client and relaunch to fix it.
`command` key is used for other functions such as copy&paste, window swapping and language mode change
during I play the EVE, so I can not just remap the key to avoid this problem.

Hope this problem will be fixed soon.

I use non-US keyboard to type Japanese and Korean with OSX version 10.9.5 (Build 13f1911)
