Hi Mike and All, Am I the only one who doesn't experience issues of this sort? I have only needed to turn VO off when dealing with my Linux VM, which doesn't have the VmWare tools installed. My WIndows VM, by contrast, does, and I have never ran into issues of focus when using it. The most I'll occasionally run into is a key conflict between a VO key and a WIndows VM key, which is easy enough to bypass with vo-tab. If anything, full-screen mode presents more issues for me, specifically when resuming a suspended vM. Best, Zack. On Jun 22, 2011, at 4:35 PM, Mike Arrigo wrote:
