    I am running Sonoma with parallels 19 and I am having issues with context menus , start menu etc. Menu's pop up but text is missing. if you know where things are supposed to be then you can click, but you cannot see the usual text. any ideas?

    Hey, I have that issue as well.
    I'm on the latest parallels version. Updated the parallels tools. Messed around with the VM resolution. Reset the VM.

    Nothing has helped.

    In my case it was my system not supporting metal graphics.
    After adding
    video.metal=0
    to the startup settings of the virtual machine it works like a charm.

    Go to Settings -> Hardware -> boot-sequence -> advanced and add video.metal=0
