  • 1.  Switching from Unity to Full Screen

    Posted Nov 03, 2009 05:19 AM

    OK, I'm in Unity, I have a browser open. How do I switch back to full screen?!?

    Before version 3, the Mac menu bar was always the VMWare menu bar while a Windows app was active, so I just selected View/Full Screen.

    In version 3, an Internet Explorer menu bar is displayed, so if I want to switch to full screen, I have to do the following:

    - click on VMWare Fusion in the dock

    - this will always reopen the Virtual Machine Library window (even if I had closed that before, I don't need to see it all the time) -- this used to focus the currently active Windows app, which is a much more sensible thing to do

    - select View/Full Screen

    - select and close the Virtual Machine Library again

    Frustrating.

    Unless you've turned off the Applications menulet, select your virtual machine (if it's not already selected) and choose View > Full Screen. You could also use the shortcut cmd-ctrl-return.
