Hi forum
I use Linux host with VB, and Windoze guest usually running fullscreen in second monitor.
There's the sometimes handy little popup toolbar menu in centre of very bottom of screen. It can be pinned, but I prefer it hidden.
BUT its in an annoying location, since I often mouse over the windoze application tabs at bottom of screen, and get the VB toolbar menu by mistake.
It is possible to move this VB popup toolbar menu to TOP of screen, where it is out of harm's way.
VMWare also does it at TOP of screen, but I'm hoping to stay with VB.
TIA's

Edit. Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I HAVE searched the VB manual, and tried to search this forum, but the search feature is currently off-line.

You can use either use:
* Seamless Option (accessible in Menu when ur at the Guest Desktop . this will hide the toolbar but in Regular Screen Mode)
* Full Screen Option (this will completely hide the Toolbar as well while showing your Guest in Full Screen Mode)

You must UNCHECK "Show in fullscreen / seamless" in order to utilize the top 2 options mentioned above ...

In General Tab:
* Go to "Advanced Tab"
* Uncheck "Show in fullscreen/seamless"

Then when you're in fullscreen or seamless mode.. the toolbar will not be shown

Enjoy


P.S.
* If you want the toolbar to show on top.. when you're in "Advanced Tab" check "Show At Top Of Screen" ...

By the way.. i switched from VMWare as well .. after trying VBox .. i totally fell in love
If VBox was not FREEWARE .. i would pay for it !

Simply Brilliant. Too easy !
And many thanks too.

BTW, I also searched for the words "top of screen" in the latest VB user manual. None found.
