I have a Windows XP guest on my OSX Host (MAC Book Pro)
I have a lots of trouble with the MAC keyboard. (MAC keyboard is different from PC)

I only know about Switch Full Screen how to Page up/Dn how to Ctrl ALT Del how to delete

but I still don't know how to press the print screen how to get a screen show inside the guest OS.
Host + Ctrl + Shife + 3/4 Does nothing!

is there a full hotkey map for the OSX hosts there?
I can't find one.

Thank you

I don't have a very elegant answer to your question, but I'm trying to find one. In the meantime, here's a workaround someone posted on another thread which could be useful to you:

You could open the OnScreen Keyboard from Programs > Accessories > Accessibility and click on the Print Scrn key on that and paste the image in paint. See how that works.
It is currently seen as a special key, or the Host captures it before VB has a chance to pass it through to the VM.

Let us know if you find out anything!

If it helps, pressing F13 on my Mac keyboard performs a print screen inside a Windows XP VM. You might need to use Fn+F13 depending on your setup.
