Copying the Text or Graphics
Between Mac and PC Applications
There isn’t particular functionality to copy or paste with in the iRAPP. We
just require using standard items of menu or shortcut for Mac applications and
Windows to copy or paste text and images via the clipboard. But please noted that
shortcut CAN be dissimilar for Mac and Windows. The standard combinations to
Copy or Paste on the Mac are Cmd+C / Cmd+V. The similar operation for Windows
is Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V.
For an example, to copy little text from Mac applications to Windows
applications we require to:
- First choose the text on the Mac applications
- Now Press the Cmd+C (or choose "Copy" from the "File" menu)
- Now Click on the mouse into a goal PC applications
- Now Press Ctrl+V (or choose "Paste" from the "File" menu)
So, it confirm that you can copy paste. I do it all the
time.
...Yes We can simply share folders and documents, or cut and
paste the records, between any Windows XP, 2003 or 2000 virtual machines and
our Mac OS X machines. No complicated or networking configuration is mandatory!
Actually we use Windows at home and a Mac at work. Its One of the largest
problem is that dissimilarity between the copy paste shortcuts on Windows
compare to the Mac i.e. on the Mac its Command + C and Command + V
and Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V on the Windows. Invariably it is solid
because of learnt the skills of motor where our hand always in figures itself
to the Windows Ctrl + C configuration (we have been using
Windows long time)
We would want to remap the Copy & Paste to the Fn + C
and Fn + V on the Mac. Why? As the Fn key is in actual the key that communicates
to where the Ctrl key is on
Windows keyboard and since it is the last edges key its simple to search. We
have tried for Double Commands but it does not seem to have an option of
turning Fn to the Command keys.

We were capable to receive such to work by using the mixture of
DoubleCommand and the jtbandes hint from there. First test the functions key
act as control key box in Double commands. Then save the files
/~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict with the content as follows:
{"^c"="copy:";}{"^v"="paste:";}{"^x"="cut:";}
After we logout and log in back we should be capable to use fn-c to copy the
content etc. There are really some drawbacks to this loom. We have to openly
define all commands we like to use fn for and mapping to controls and then fn
is hacky in actual. Unfortunately We weren't able to receive it to act other
ways. At first We thought we can be able to choose both the "command key acts
as control key" checkboxes and the "fn key act as control key"
but that did not seem to be works. Ditto for changing to controls with method
of Alex above. We was also not able to search the modifier for assigning
commands to fn, and documentation of Apple seems to point to that it s done at
a minor level than key binding has access to. If someone knows that best way of
doing like that we would like to observe that.
