SR number 381260 still not fixed - dock bar does not go away

in beta 2, i found that when you do full screen mode

then hide fusion to show os x

then click on fusion icon from dock bar to jump back to fusion

the dock bar and menu bar does not go away.

beta 3 still shows this bug...

what gives?

Developers had other priorities? (This is a guess, of course)

i hope they can get it. i use the window hide option to completely put away the vmware when using os x. and when i want to run fusion, i just click on fusion icon on dock, and it pops up right away.

the command-enter, full-screen thing is ok, but it resizes win xp desktop everytime and messes up application windows in win xp.

does anyone else think it's useful to hide and unhide fusion without going through the full screen fade and unfade?

I certainly do!

Notice that if you click on the Virtual Machine window - to switch keyboard/mouse input to the guest OS, you can no longer use CMD-H to hide the Virtual Machine. You can however go to the menu bar and choose the hide option from there, however when you bring it back up, it's no longer full screen.

Another side effect of the current setup is that if you CMD-Tab to another app, then back to your virtual machine, it has the same problem - dock and menu bar stick on top and won't go away without leaving and re-entering full screen mode.

It's cool with me, I'm sure they'll have it fixed in one of these betas...
