Multi display issue VMware Fusion Pro

Dear All,

would like to check if using 2 out of 3-4 display and auto desktop switching have been resolved in VMware fusion Pro Tech preview?

Since VMware fusion 7 till now it has been 3 years already. As many people have been wanting to use only 2 of the 3/4 screens supported and also hoping the desktop does not switch when in another space.

All solutiions in the threads regarding Mission control spaces are not working. Every solutions brings back to parallels as a better choice over VMware fusion For doing virtualization.

Reae the old theeads here.

old threads:

This answer your provide does not solve the issue not fix the issue at all.

If you habe 3 display monitor, you wish to only use 2 display for the VM. fusion can’t do it. this is an issue.

Nexy regarding spaces controlled by OSX. focus stealing still happens. Your last link shows that the person still having the same issue and did not resolve.
