    Hi, denisl!

    What is your old version?

    PD6 supports multiple monitors in fullscreen mode. There is special point in View menu - "Use All Displays in Full Screen"

    How do we dedicate an external lower resolution monitor for a VM in non-full screen mode?

    Nevermind, figured it out.

    Drag the VM window to the secondary monitor and then go fullscreen while having the 'Use all displays' setting disabled.

    Maximum resolution?

    I can't get full 1920x1200 on external AND full 1680x1050 on internal display. I'm using MacBook Pro 15" 1GB graphics early 2011 model.

    I can get full resolution on internal display but then only a max of 1600 x 1200 on external. Or I can get full resolution 1920x1200 on external but not native resolution on internal (native is 1680x1050 but can only get 1600x1200 to appear as max resolution).

    Anyone else having issues?
