Unity mode under linux host

[FredericoLaffit]

Hello,

I was reading Vmware Workstation Pro 14 documentation, and I want to know if Unity is avaliable to use under linux host.

Scenario: I will use a linux host, with nvidia card configured, and I want to use a Vm ware Workstation to install Windows 10 latest version as guest, with Visual studio installed inside this guest, and also, I will use Adobe p[hotoshop, premiere, etc. I have 64 Gb on host ans I will configure 32 GB to do Virtual Machine, but I like to use all programs as unity View, so before I change my computer OS do linux, I want to know if Unit mode is avaliable under linux Vmware workstation pro 14 as is avaliable for windows host.

Thanks in advance.

PS: Sorry for bad english.

With VMware Workstation 14, Unity mode is not available on Linux hosts.

I use Workstation on Windows hosts but if I remember correctly Unity mode on Linux hosts has not been available since Workstation 12. If you search the forum there is a thread that discusses why the feature was droppe.

Yes, but under documentation, there is no mention about is not avaliable under Linux Hosts on version 14.

I will, try now, hope this feature is avaliable.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards.

The thread about Unity on Linux hosts is:

workstation 12 has no unity mode for linux hosts or guests

I am running V14 on Ubuntu host. Unity is gone.

I don't miss it much, I use 34" monitor and multiple workspaces.

Hi,

As mentioned earlier in this thread. Unity support for both Linux hosts as well as Linux guests was axed in Workstation 12.
