    In the list overview (Control Center) of the available VMs there is this thumbnail showing the current state of the VM in form of a little view of the current screen.

    Why does this view become black when the machine is auto-idled?

    Actually I don't know how to tell wether it's a Parallels enforced "sleep" mode or wether it's Windows switching off the display at the moment.

    When I logged into my Mac this morning and fired up control center, I saw the "standard" OS banners, like:

    Thank you for the provided screenshot. But how would you like to change it?
