Hello Phil, Thanks for the reminder about full-screen mode.
Isn't pressing Control+Command together to move the focus out of Windows and back into VMWare Fusion equivalent to toggling out of full-screen mode? Is it possible to be in VMWare and still be full-screen? How do people make sure they're focused on Mac OS or on Windows? Isn't it Control+Command+F to focus on Windows and just Control+Command to focus on Mac OS? Is there a better way?
