I believe I mean the application window menu that drops drop from the top. However, previously I was able to press the host key (right ctrl) to release it even in fullscreen, and then be able to switch to another workspace. Keyboard and mouse input is automatically grabbed when the guest window is active.
Yes, of course I am aware of that and that's how it always been. This worked for other versions of VirtualBox.
Note, the windowing options for the VM window are "Only on this workspace", which usually prevents a window from moving to the new workspace when you switch to it. It looks like it attempts to, but virtualbox workspace 3 continually stays as the primary workspace. Enabling full screen mode, and moving my mouse to a focus that isn't on the vm, and using key combinations to switch workspaces, no longer allows me to switch workspaces. As long as the windows isn't in full screen mode, and as long as my mouse focus is not in the VM, I can use key combinations to switch workspaces.
Start a VM, it starts up on workspace 3 on my main monitor. Start Virtualbox on workspace 3, I have that on my guest monitor. Linux Mint, 4 workspaces, CTRL-ALT-RIGHT-ARROW, CTRL-ALT-LEFT-ARROW moves between workspaces, or other key combinations jump me from workspace 1-4. I'm seeing what I believe to be the same issue on Virtualbox 4.3.2 r90405 8:47AM]] cat /etc/*-releaseĭISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 15 Olivia"
