Not working since 3034: "Change Mac OS X resolution in full screen"

[westside_guy]

Hi,

In all of the betas since 3034, Parallels won't change the actual screen resolution in full-screen mode for me. If I try to switch to 1024x768 for example, the LCD's actual video resolution stays at 1440x900, Windows switches to use 1024x768 subset of the screen,and so I end up with a lot of unused (black) pixels on all four sides of the screen.

If I go back to 3034, full-screen resolution changes work correctly.

Is anyone else seeing this same behavior? Conversely, is this working correctly for anyone running the current beta?

I do have "Change Mac OS X resolution in full screen" checked in the preferences.

I've tried reporting this to Parallels - I've seen it in builds 3094, 3106, 3120, and now 3150 - but haven't got any sort of acknowledgment. Kind of frustrating when you're a paying customer and you don't even get a "thanks - we'll look into it when we have a chance" response back.

Current beta 3150 works fine for me using the toolbar-view-full screen. No black pixels.

Okay, maybe you mean more than you said here, but - what happens when, in full screen mode, you change the resolution of your Windows desktop? That's the problem.

When I go to full-screen mode it is just fine at 1440x900 - the native resolution of my LCD. The problem occurs when I try to change the resolution to something else.
