Fullscreen on second monitor

Post by matibaski »

Hi there

I got a problem:
I have a iMac 27" and a second 25" monitor (extended desktop).

My problem is, that when I'm running virtualbox (Vista or Win 7, and yes it's a original copy) in Fullscreen-mode, it shows on the main monitor (iMac).
I know that you can click in the bottom-menu on "Screen" and then choose, on wich monitor you want to use the fullscreeen mode.

But when i click on the Screen-Button, no context-menu shows off.
Have a look at the pictures.
Top-picture: contextmenu works<br />Bottom-pciture: contextmenu doesnt work

The other buttons work very well, so I think it could be a configproblem, but I'm not sure.

How can I fix this problem? I googled it for about two days and I didn't find anyone with the same problem (or maybe I was googling it with the wrong tags).

If anybody can help, thx :-)

Same here...
However, I can go to the top-menu bar (it appears if you approach with the pointer) and select Screen 2 under view there...

Cheers,
Beni
