I'm running Yosemite on my MBPR and i'm running Windows 8.1 as a guest OS. I have three monitors and run the guest in Fullscreen mode. Everything has been working great... until I upgraded to Parallels desktop for Mac 10.
Now, when moving from one monitor to the other, I notice that the first click sets focus to the application on that screen, but the click isn't registered. If i click on an OK button on my right monitor when I've been working on my center one, i will have to click it a second time because the first click will just put the focus on the window that OK button is in.
I also noticed that plenty of times, I click on something, and then move my mouse shorlty afterward and the "let-up" of the left mouse button is registered .5-1 second after the click, making it seem like a click and drag. This is really annoying when clicking on the taskbar as it brings up the modification menu, instead of changing focus to that application.
I've also noticed that quite often when clicking on an item in Outlook, it registers as a double-click and opens the email in a new window.
All of these problems are intermittent, though they happen 5-10 minutes after restarting Parallels. I've also noticed when changing settings in my VM while it's running, Parallels will lock up and needs to be Force Quit to get it working again.
I've reached out to support, though they poked around for 45 minutes and didn't make any relevant changes. Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated!
Here's what I've tried:
1) Re-installing Parallels tools.
2) Removing the mouse drivers from the VM and re-adding them.
3) Changing the gaming mouse options from automatic to enabled, to disabled, and back to automatic.
4) I've tested OSX full screen on/off and there doesn't seem to be a difference.
5) I've rebooted the guest/host plenty of times. It works fine after restarting Parallels for 5-10 minutes then starts happening again.
6) I've tried Windows and Coherence mode, though the problems happen there as well.
7) In Yosemite, none of the problems exist. It's only when working in the Guest VM
8) The VM performance settings are set to maximize performance (not battery) and are set to a faster VM rather than host.
