Fullscreen on Parallels 7

Okay, so I just got Parallels 7 Today, and it's pretty good so far. The only thing I don't like is that when I open fullscreen, it takes up my main display and switches to a different thing.

I have 2 monitors, and I want it on my 2nd Monitor Fullscreen. Is there any way to change a setting so it doesn't do that? I just want to have it Fullscreen on my 2nd Display and still be able to use my Mac on my main display.

Thanks.

If you go into the settings for that parallels VM, Select Options at the top then "Full screen" from the menu. then Uncheck "Use Mac OS X Full Screen"

This should resolve your issue.

I don't have that option.

This feature came in one of the updates to version 7, if I remember correctly. Make sure you are running the latest version.
 
When NOT using Mac OS X Full Screen, is it supposed to do the corner roll on the hot corners like in PD6? Mine just makes the menu bar slide down. :( (build 14924)
