    Hello, recently upgraded to PD8 and connect and external monitor to my iMac.

    If I run remote desktop on Windows 7 machine, in coherence mode and then I expand the remote desktop window to full screen the mac somehow senses this and uses the Mac's full screen functionality, which is pants. As this then blanks out my second screen as it has a grey brushed metal polish. And it seems to be wrestling with the system as it is going backwards and forwards between this before settling down to full screen mode.

    So thus rendering my second screen useless!

    To reiterate I am not going into full screen mode, I am in coherence mode and this somehow switches itself to full screen mode. Can someone help?

    Can someone try and replicate also?

    Thanks

    Brilliant!

    Great strells then it must be a bug... Have you raised or heard anything?

    Keyboard wise have you tried these? http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?p=638150#post638150. I had something similar but managed to get it working again as I completely uninstalled the app. Rather than doing the upgrade. Reckon that's what was causing the issue. Restart didn't help me...

    Will try turning off crystal. Will keep you posted! Cheers
