Hi, I've been doing a lot of development using Parallels 8 / Mountain Lion on my MBA. Whilst performance and responsiveness are good, I've struggled with the keyboard and general user experience. I'm heavy on keyboard shortcuts etc within Visual Studio, and frequantly get conflicts between VS in Windows and OSX. Examples are Ctrl Space being auto-complete in VS, whilst being Spotlight on OSX. Therefore, I wonder whether there's a way to prevent keyboard shortcuts from leaving windows when I'm Windows / Fullscreen mode? When I'm in full screen mode, I really do want the full immersive experience of Windows. Any Advice? Cheers, Paul
Sounds like you want to go to Parallels Desktop menu -> Preferences -> Shortcuts -> System Shortcuts and set Send System Shortcuts to Always. That way, everything goes to the VM. Steve
