Mac keyboard shortcuts during Zoom remote access from Ubuntu

keyboard shortcutsmacUbuntuzoom-meeting

I'm connecting from Ubuntu to Mac via Zoom and I need to use keyboard shortcuts like copy/paste (and many more).

How do I invoke Command (or Cmd) ⌘?
My keyboard has the Windows ⊞ key but it doesn't seem to work as Command. Could be an issue on my Ubuntu though.

Best Answer

After finally using Key Codes recommended by @Tetsujin I was able to compile the list below. Both my local Ubuntu and remote Mac use Czech layout.

I was hoping to produce Command so that I can use it to type symbols. I discovered that for that, I needed Option.

Basically, Right Alt on Ubuntu works as Option + Ctrl on Mac. So to strip off the Ctrl part, I need to press Right Alt, briefly touch and release Ctrl and after that Right Alt works only as Option.

desired symbol how to produce
$ Right Alt, briefly Ctrl, 4 (actually č on Czech keyboard)
Right Alt + ; (ů) appears to produce the same key code as $ in Key Codes however, doesn't produce $ in PhpStorm
# Right Alt, briefly Ctrl, 3 (š)
[ Right Alt + [ (1. key after P)
] Right Alt + ] (2. key after P)
\ Right Alt, briefly Ctrl, \ (3. key after P)
| Right Alt, briefly Ctrl, Shift + \ (3. key after P)
< Right Alt, briefly Ctrl, , (1. key after M)
> Right Alt, briefly Ctrl, . (2. key after M)
( ) = - _ no surprises here, use what you'd press locally
action how to produce
Command Right Win (Left Win triggers local response, Zoom doesn't send it across)
cut Right Win + x
copy Right Win + c
paste I haven't found a solution (Right Win + v doesn't work)
jump by words Left Alt + arrow
beginning / end of a row no surprises (Home / End)

I hope someone will find a way to trigger paste :)
