Release candidate UI glitch on Leopard

Hi!

Running Fusion with Windows XP in full screen mode using spaces.

Assign Fusion to space #2. Use Ctrl-Left and Ctrl-Right to switch from Mac OS X only to Windows only and back.

Pretty neat Smiley Wink

Now open an arbitrary window other than the Finder on the Mac OS screen. Terminal, Safari, ...

Press Ctrl-Right to get to Windows, press Ctrl-Left to get back to Mac OS. Suddenly the yellow

minimize button of the window is greyed out. Minimizing doen't work anymore, neither by clicking

that button nor by double clicking the title bar of the window.

Nothing dramatic, but weird. Happens only with Windows in full screen mode on another space.

This problem seems to occur with any application that has a fullscreen window. I've logged a bug with Apple about it (radar # 5580746).

I'm seeing the same results.

Thanks for clarifying!

Fusion/Windows is about the only application I use in fullscreen mode,

so naturally I blamed the problem on VMware.

I've been having the same issue. Has anyone found any fixes since the last post (Nov, 2007)?

I'm running Fusion 1.1.3, Win XP, Mac OS Leopard

Thx.

And I'm sure Apple's not going to worry about it until the next OS ... Snow Leopard is it .... thx.
