Hi,
Special characters using »Alt Gr«, are not working when we select
Slovenian keyboard on backend server. But we must choose English
keyboard in target server to get this work. Behaviour observer in

If you're referring to an RDP connection, Guacamole dynamically
translates from your local keyboard layout (which can be anything) to
the remote keyboard layout (which must be configured at the connection
level and defaults to US English). If you change the layout within the
session to something different from what Guacamole was configured to
expect for that connection, then Guacamole will unknowlingly be sending
the wrong scancodes to the RDP server.
See:
https://guacamole.apache.org/faq/#does-guacamole-support-my-keyboard-layout
As long as you choose a layout that Guacamole supports, such as the
default, it will not matter what layout is used locally. You can use the
Slovenian keyboard layout locally and have things work just fine, as
Guacamole will translate things as necessary to achieve the same result,
including through sending Unicode events.
In the case that the RDP server does not support Unicode events, then
you would need to select a remote keyboard layout that is supported by
Guacamole and has the same characters, or implement the desired keyboard
layout and contribute that layout, or open a feature request to
implement that layout.
