Long answer: There are situations where it can work, and some upcoming changes that _might_ help it work, but no guarantees. The next version of Guacamole, 1.6.0, will feature support for full screen mode and keyboard lock, which might possibly help in some situations - however, it is ultimately still up to the operating system of the client computer whether to interpret the Alt-Tab key combination locally or pass that through to the browser which can then pass it on to Guacamole. Unfortunately in the case of Windows client machines, Windows is not very configurable in terms of the key combinations like this, and is likely to interrupt and interpret those key combinations locally and not pass them through, and, at the end of the day, there isn't much that can be done about that. Mac is more configurable with that regard, and Alt-Tab isn't a default shortcut in Mac, and Linux clients are very configurable in terms of key combinations, so this can be disabled on the client-side and passed through to the remote systems. You can try with 1.6.0 when that comes out and see if the full screen + keyboard lock helps you with that. -Nick >
