    My setup:

    iMac 17" 1.84GHz Core Duo
    Mac OS X, 10.4.6 (fully up to date)
    Parallels 2.1 Beta 6
    Windows XP SP 2 VM (fully up to date)
    2nd Physical Monitor: 17" Envision

    When I pull the Windows XP VM's window to the second monitor screen and then have it go into full screen mode, after the cool cube transition (which happens by the way on both monitors!), the menu bar disapperas on the first (primary) monitor until I click the mouse anywhere on that monitor, then it comes back.

    Same thing happens if I take the VM back out of full screen mode: cube transition on both monitors, temporary loss of menu bar on primary monitor.

    Thanks for the great beta product. I've been using it a ton and have been very productive (and have already pre-paid for the GM when it comes out).

    I've experienced the same thing. I use two monitors at work and only one at home. I'm used to it now and I think I accept it. But it would be really cool if it could just flip the 2nd monitor and leave the first alone, menu bar and all.
