Disable Host+C "Scale Mode" shortcut

Hello,
I would like to disable the Host+C shortcut.
whenever I hit it my guest machine goes crazy and stops working.
Given that I only use the full screen mode, I'd rather simply disable the Host+C shortcut, than look for a solution to fix the "Scale Mode" problem (especially since I hit this combination only when mixing up Copy and paste shortcuts between windows and mac).

Thanks,
Roberto.

Code: Select all

VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/Input/MachineShortcuts "ScaleMode=None"
This should work with VBox 4.1.8 and this will be documented as of the next maintenenace release.

Thanks for this tip. My Mac host couldn't handle the accidental Host+C at all - display refresh just went away.
