Describe the bug you encountered:
can not input something when fullscreen on mac os x
...

What did you expect to happen instead?
keyboard input works
...

How did you install RustDesk?

RustDesk version and environment
the latest version

but, if you drag a terminal app window(other should work too?) to split the fullscreen, the input works again!

You can fullscreen it first and then drag a terminal app to split screen with it, then it works

Hi @congzhangzh

I still have this issue. Window focus lock on rustdesk in fullscreen mode (new spaces/desktop)

I've enabled:
System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Input Monitoring -> Unlock the lock on the bottom left -> Add apps -> Select the app -> Check the box left to it

When I change to primary Space, I cannot written any input because Window active is still in rustdesk in next Space.

Any workaround? Thanks.
