[Qemu-devel] [Bug 696530] [NEW] qemu-0.13.0-r2 special keys different when using -alt-grab

[Phillip Merensky]

Public bug reported:

I use -alt-grab with qemu-0.13.0-r2 and special keys like Ctrl-Alt-f for
full screen did not work for me with a windows guest. They work normally
when omitting the -alt-grab startup parameter.

After quite a long time, I found out that I have to add the shift key to
the keys from the documentation when I use the -alt-grab option.

Probably -ctrl-grab behaves similarly. It would be really nice to have
this documented in the default documentation in the man page as has not
been documented there yet.
