PD13 - Switch to Coherence straight from FullScreen

I have a Macbook Pro 2017 with Retina connected to a 34" Dell monitor with 3440*1440 resolution.
I want to use Coherence, but i want Windows to display image in 1-1 pixel by pixel.
However, in Coherence both PD12 and PD13 make Windows believe that the resolution is 6880*2880 causing unsightly font issues.
In PD12, i would switch to fullscreen and then immediately to Coherence, which would let Windows believe the correct resolution is there.
However in PD13, when i am in FullScreen, 'Enter Coherence' option is disabled in the menu.
Any suggestions here?

Note: i got Windows to believe it has the native resolution using 'Scaled' graphics mode, but the fonts look a bit blurred.
 
Actually, i have now downgraded to PD12 and i am experiencing the same issue... I have created a new VM with Windows 10 when i installed PD13. It seems that some setting somewhere prevents me from switching display modes directly. This is very annoying. I am starting to consider VMware.
 
Support said that this is working as designed.

However, i was definitely able to get it to switch coherence & full screen directly when i installed Windows 10 on PD12... i really wonder what is different across the two.
