I am not happy with the PD8 attempt to integrate retina display: examples - 1) maximizing Windows OS apps (e.g. SigmaPlot) in Coherence force Mac full screen view and very flaky behavior 2) See picture - multi-layer hierarchy folder structure in MS SharePoint WorkSpace (functionally kind of like Finder that allows user to see folder structure) 1st layer nice text size, everything else TINY. 3) Resizing main PD8 Windows screen in standard window-mode awful scaling and slow. Let me know when you have fixed.
CGSmith, 1. This feature is called - Fullscreen on Demand. You can turn it off in the VM settings. Just select Coufigure... menu item in the Virtual Machine menu. Select Options pane, click Coherence. Turn off "Allow applications to switch to fullscreen". 2. I'm sorry, but we don't write code for MS SharePoint application. It is Microsoft's bug. It is sad what MS do not support DPI scaling. As I can see on the picture you are using Retina Mac. You can turn off Retina support in the VM settings to avoid DPI scaling in Windows. Thus MS's bugs will go away. 3. What is "slow"? It takes dozen of seconds or minutes? Could you please explain me the problem more detailed? Alex
Thanx Alexg 1). Found the setting after I posted. Just not something that I thought would be on as default. I am square with that one. 2). Understood 3). Slowness (a few extra seconds - 10 to 12) is only with the retina support selected. Namely at boot up and window rescaling (this is milliseconds but noticeable). I guess that is the nature of non native high DPI programs. Right now I have tuned my VM with 512 GB of video RAM. Would increasing help?
