Hi,
I am running VB on MacOS X host system and want to let specific key combinations (cmd + arrowkeys) through to the host systems. This would allow me to run my VB-Guests in fullscreen mode on one space (Same as a desk in Ubuntu) and swap the space without having to use my mouse.
Is there a possibility to let specific combinations through to the host os?
Thanks in advance,
aokai

Re: Exception for catched key combinations
You have to release the keyboard from the Guest first, then use the Host key combination. So you press the Host key first (right ctrl by default), then cmd + down.
