Can't move Windows Guest window without Host Key

Post by markd89 »

Hi,

Running 6.1 under Debian/Mate Desktop.

This is a new machine and I see a litte issue.

When the guest window has focus, I can click on other windows on the host side and they get focus. I can click back on the VM window and it gets focus. So far so good.

Now, if I go to move the guest Window, I can't unless I hit the host key.

Basically, once the guest window is focused, it cannot be moved without the Host key being pressed. I would like to just be able to drag it without having to use the host ket.

My old (also 6.1) machine didn't work this way. Please let me know what setting I am missing.

Thanks!
Mark
