    Hi,

    I have 2 displays on my Mac Pro. One 30" Apple as primary and one 23" Apple as secondary.

    Is it possible to have Parallels use the 2nd monitor when it runs in Coherence mode? Now, Coherence is always on the primary monitor.

    Hello Patrick,

    It is not possible to have Parallels Desktop on both monitors when it runs in Coherence mode. It is just normal software behavior. Sorry.

    With best wishes for a Happy New Year,

    Xenos, he wasn't asking about having Coherence on both monitors, rather whether he could designate which single monitor coherence would use.

    I, also, would like this feature (this sounds like a wish list thread to me).

    Hello Eru and Patrick,

    I am sorry for misunderstanding your request.

    To designate which single monitor Coherence would use, open Mac System Preferences -> Displays -> Arrange tab and move the Parallels Desktop menu bar from the monitor where it is to the monitor you would like it to be.

    Best regards,
    Xenos

    Really. Very nice. I'll try that when I get home.
