To make working inside a virtual machine more comfortable, you can run a guest operating system in fullscreen mode. When running a virtual machine in fullscreen mode, the guest OS screen occupies the whole monitor of your computer; the primary OS and its applications as well as the Parallels Workstation menu, toolbar, and status bar are hidden.
Note: You can start a virtual machine in the fullscreen mode if the Switch to fullscreen mode automatically option is set in the VM Flags tab of the General Options.
If you want to switch to fullscreen while running a guest OS, do one of the following:
Alt+Enter
by default, unless you have defined other hot key).To return to windowed mode:
Ctrl+Alt
or Alt+Enter
by default). Hot key combinations are defined in the Hot Key Combinations tab of the Preferences window.
You may adjust resolution of the monitor for fullscreen mode. See User Interface Preferences for more info.
