I have a 15' retina mac and I want windows full-screen experience to be exactly like when I run Windows via Bootcamp. Which is: Resolution: 2880x1800 Scaling: 150% In parallels the same screen looks blurry, because I have to enable the "scale to fit screen" setting. If I disable this setting, Parallels reports incorrect screen resolution to Windows, which is 3840x2400. This is a bug. Parallels should report native resolution in full screen mode, despite my MacOS settings. Summing up: I want Parallels to report 2880x1800 to Windows even if my MacOS settings are "More Space".
Hi Alex, Microsoft Windows is not adapted for such high pixel density (DPI) resolution of the Retina display: Windows virtual machine resolution becomes very high thus everything is too small; Windows picture (fonts, images) are not rendered properly. Refer to this article.
Yeah, thanks for a canned response. That is NOT TRUE. Microsoft Windows was DPI-aware since Vista. Windows works just fine via boot camp with Retina! The blurriness is only in Parallels The reason for the blurry text is because I have to set "autoscale" in the VM settings. Because without "autoscale" Parallels reports wrong resolution to Windows. You're not answering the question: why on earth does Parallels report 3480x2400 to windows?
I don\t have an answer, but have the same issues with my MAC Pro 15 inch retina.....sometimes the data is not updated, it messes up different screens, and there are just parts of my screen black. When I move my mouse in a couple of circles on the screen it updates...but it's very annoying. Can y tell me your setting, and where `i can find mine?
