    Hi. I've been fiddling with running a copy of OS X in Parallels 10 (El Cap host, Mavericks guest), and I just tried Coherence mode, and see this:

    ...double menubars? And the guest dock is still visible? Is this intended behavior? From this page it would appear the answer is "yes", but I fail to see how this is 'Coherence', when comparing to the same mode with a Windows guest.

    I mean, with a Windows guest the taskbar stuff gets iconified on the host dock, and the focused guest program's menu and the systray icons end up on the host menubar: it's seamless. Why is the same level of integration not apparent here, when the mapping is explicitly one-to-one? Am I missing something to make this better, or is Coherence with Mac guests just terrible?

    Thanks...

    Please share a screenshot with us to investigate further.
    Also please make sure that you are running the latest build in Parallels Desktop check for updates and installed Parallels Tools.
