what's with this moving / resizing open apps???

Steps to produce:

1) open couple of apps, ie; safari, mail, and etc

2) make parallels full screen

3) make parallels back to window mode

4) that's all. safari, mail and any other apps have moved / resized! what gives....

Hello,

Please open Parallels, go to Preferences, Appearance menu and
uncheck "Change MacOSX resolution",

Best regards,

This didn't solve the window moving / resizing problem.

I can create a window (FileMaker, for example) in the XP full screen. Then I can revert to the MacOSX mode. Then when I call for full screen using Shift+Alt the window is scrunched small and in the upper left corner. In MacOSX I like to keep the Parallels window off to the lower right corner.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X ver 10.4.10
Parallels V3.0, Build 4560
VM = Windows XP Home Edition, SP2

I have reloaded parallels tools with no good result. The shortcut icons won't stay in their custom places either. This is a showstopper!
 
I just use 2 screens

MacBook Pro 17 inch and an old VGA display

Us old mac users started using two screens more than 12 years ago
Nine inch black and white and a 256 color 17 inch VGA was brilliant

serious graphic artists use three ot four screesn for a static Mac

I have a 22 inch Mac screen at home
just wonderful

my daughter uses a Sony TV to play videos from a basic MacBook

NAn LG hi-res 22 inch TV also looks interestingly cheap

Thanks, I may do that in the office, but I spend most of my time away from such it and I need the portability that worked pretty well in the earlier version of Parallels.
