Where is Mini Toolbar?

Post by rasta »

I can't find the VM mini toolbar introduced in 3.0.2. It is enabled in Settings, but where is it? I've always used "Ctrl + Home" to get access to the VM options when in Fullscreen mode.

Thanks....

In the guest, in fullscreen mode, move the mouse to the bottom of the screen (centre of the bottom) - it should pop into view!

I still can't find it anywhere in my Solaris guest. Hmmm. Has anyone actually seen it in Solaris or OpenSolaris guests?

Works in my opensolairs.

Had a time getting it to work though. First time I tried it would not work period. I then turned on 3D effects and it still would not work.
Messed around because my Windows toolbar was still on top even though opensolaris was in full screen and it finally popped up after the Windows toolbar went away.
Turned off 3D effect and it still worked, but it takes a few seconds for the Windows toolbar to go away, and you will not see it until Windows toolbar gets out of the way.

The host + home key works all the time and does not popup unless you call for it :wink:

With my fullscreen Solaris 10 guest running on a dual-screen setup with no Windows toolbar, I still can't find the damn thing no matter what. Have moved my mouse everywhere.

The toolbar works GREAT in 3.0.4. Thank you, Sun!

I see that in 3.0.2 there was a bug in that the toolbar was only drawn on the first host display, and my VM was in the second. Fixed in 3.0.4.
