Do your windows get squashed when you come back from fullscreen?

    When I go to fullscreen mode, then come back (love the tricked out rotating box in Beta 5, by the way) to Mac OS X, the windows I had opened all get squashed to flat little rectangles and I have to resize them.

    Also any new windows I open of already-opened apps (like Safari) come out squashed.

    Anybody know what's happening there?

    This is caused by the resolution change of your monitor.
    Chenge option in Parallels -> Preferences -> User Interface -> Change OSX Resolution
    And your screen resolution will automatically change in fullscreen so your windows will stay safe.

    Bump. This certainly seems like a bug that still exists, at least for Safari. I've got a 15" MBP running the release version of Parallels. When running Windows full screen at native 1440x900 resolution, with Safari on the Mac desktop (any desktop, I'm also running Virtue), I apple-TAB back to a Mac application and Safari has been chopped in half horizontally.

    It doesn't happen to any other application I notice, including Firefox which I was running at the same time on the same desktop. Safari - chopped. Firefox - normal.

    What gives?
