    This is a problem that I experienced with PD10 running on OS X Mavericks but is now happening to me with PD11 on El Capitan.

    Here is how I can replicate the problem:
    Have a full screen Windows 7 VM running in full screen in its own desktop to the right of Desktop 1
    On Desktop 1, open a PDF in Preview by double clicking on it
    Keyboard: Control + Right Arrow to switch over to the Parallels VM
    Keyboard: Control + Left Arrow to switch back to Desktop 1
    Keyboard: Command + Q to quit Preview (which is still the active application)
    Preview quits, but immediately after that, Parallels steals the focus of the Desktop, as if I hit Control + Right Arrow

    It doesn't matter if the full screen VM is directly to the right of Desktop 1 or if there is a Desktop 2 in between Desktop 1 and the VM.
    It also doesn't seem to matter what application I open. It's done it with Preview, Skype, ClamXAV and others.

    Anyone experienced this before?

    PD v11.0.2 Build 31348
    OSX 10.11.1
    Mid 2012 non-Retina MacBook Pro

    The same Problem still persists in Parallels Version 11.1.0 (32202).
    Mid 2014 Retina MacBook Pro
    OSX 10.11.1

    Its pretty annoying so i hope this is getting fixed soon.

    Thank god I'm not the only one experiencing this. I dont know many people who use Parallels but those who do havent reported it.
    I use Parallels in full screen mode without Coherence or whatever its called nowadays. Maybe thats contributing to it.
