Features not working when Multiplicity used with VMware

I have a situation where I use multiplicity in a seamless configuration to control 4 machines... the primary machine, 1 VMware host, and 2 virtual machines on the VMware host. Everything works fine between the two physical machines, but when I have to go to one of the virtual machines, caps lock does not work. I have to hold SHIFT for every letter.

I also noted that I cannot copy/paste or drag/drop from the virtual machines to my primary machine. I have to drag the files from the virtual machine to the host, and then from the VMware host to my primary machine. This may be a known issue, but I wanted to bring it up in case it is not. Hopefully someone from Stardock monitors this forum.

Thanks

I am using VMware Workstation Pro 15.5 and Multiplicity 3.44 build 00090.

I know this is an old post, but I wanted to add my 2 cents here as well. I connect to my secondary in KVM mode. The secondary has VMWare Workstation which I use to do all of my development work. When using caps lock, everything works normally on the secondary host, but not inside the VM. There you have to hold down the shift key.

I've used this configuration for years with Multiplicity and versions of VMWare going back to Version 9/10 and this has never worked as expected. It would be great if it could be fixed.

Thanks!
