Right Shift key for in Remote Desktop client for Android gets stuck

I'm using RD client-android version with bluetooth keyboard.

with G-board keyboard app.

and using Korean keyboard Input on windows 10 home.

there's right shift key stuck problem(it has been a long time ago. many users claim it). left shift key is fine.

reproduce: ('Use scancode input when available' option enabled at android RD client)

Rt.shift [down] -> 'B' key [down] -> Rt.shift [up] -> 'B' key [up]

->then, shift key stuck

* 'B' key is just a example. every letter can reproduce it.

At stuck state If I stoke Lt.shift key, then stuck solved.

If I disable 'Use scancode input when available' option, stuck problem doesn't happened.

but If I disable it, I can't use Korean Input on windows.

I tried several bluetooth keyboards and keyboard apps(android). but every combination It stuck.

fix the notorious Shift key stuck problem please!!

Android RD Client does not invoke on-screen keyboard.

Thank you for your response, Shawn. I guess I'm expecting the RD server to recognize the textbox and send the appropriate command to the client to pop the keyboard. The server knows that it's connected to an android client. The android OS knows whether or not to display an on-screen keyboard depending on the presence of a physical keyboard. It seems like very simple logic, to the point I having a hard time believing it doesn't already exist.

RD Server: Hey! I'm in a textbox. Send OSK command to client.

RD Client: Hey android, I need a keyboard here.

Android OS: Ok. here you go - or - I see you have a physical keyboard, so no.
