Description Michal 'hramrach' Suchanek 2009-09-08 22:36:59 UTC 
In the gvncviewer sample program when keyboard grab is activated it is still possible to activate the gvncviewer menu by keyboard shortcuts.

This is sometimes desirable but sometimes it prevents typing these shortcuts on the remote desktop to activete remote menus.
