Using Native Window Switcher - Mac

[TylerD8]

Hello All, We are using Parallels RAS to deliver applications to both Mac and Windows endpoints. On Windows endpoints, this is flawless, but on Mac endpoints window management is difficult. When Mac's Mission Control feature is used to display all the windows on the screen, Parallels apps running in seamless mode do not show as separate windows.

For example, if I have Outlook open with multiple windows, App Exposé view does not show the windows as independent. I can only see a single app called "Parallels Client" that holds the other windows within it.

This is true if I have multiple apps open. For example, if Outlook and Edge are open running in RAS, I cannot select the windows independent in App Exposé view. The apps also do not show on the menu bar unless they are minimized. The only way I can swap between apps is by right clicking on the Parallels client, and selecting from the list of running applications.

Are there improvements in the works to better integrate Parallels RAS apps with the Mac window manager?

As a note, Command + Tab also does not show the independent apps, just the "Parallels Client". If I have multiple RAS apps launched, they all show up under the single icon.

Below I have Edge and Outlook launched on Mac OS via RAS. If it hit Command + Tab, they both show as Parallels Client. I cannot select them independently.

On your Mac, do any of the following: Switch to the previous app: Press Command-Tab. Scroll through all open apps: Press and hold the Command key, press the Tab key, then press the Left or Right arrow key until you get to the app you want. Release the Command key.
