How to use CTRL-Break shortcut in guest

Hi,

I use Windows 7 as a guest and need the shortcut CRTL + Break (to stop operations in IBM Notes). But Break is only available as a menu entry?

Do you have any ideas to get this to work?

Have you tried to add a new/custom key mapping in the Fusion Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse?

See the screenshot below. I don't get to try this but the idea here is to map Command-F12 (or some other combination of your choosing) of the macOS host to Control-Break in the Windows guest.
