Keyboard shortcut to exit the full screen? (no, not alt-ctrl)

I'm using VMWare workstation on a laptop. The host is Windows 7 x 64, the guest is Ubuntu 10.10.

The laptop, when I'm at work, hangs in a display of 1200 x 1600 portrait as second screen and 1280 x 800 display integrated as the main screen. In general, I'll put the instance of Ubuntu on the second screen and click full screen in the toolbar.

When I SLEEP the laptop and disconnect the screen and then later to wake the portable computer, the prompt returns with a wide black border around it. This means that the display he uses is largely out of the limits of the office - but much of the top left of the screen is still visible.

I think that, if I could leave the guest full screen (say, back to the window mode) and enter again full-screen, it would actually take charge main screen and resize to 1280 x 800. However, I can't figure out how actually the VMWare instance exit believe that it is in full screen mode. Normally, I get a drop-down menu to control this (minimize and UN-fullscreen window control widgets) when I move the cursor to the top of the screen, but this menu does not appear at the top of the screen as indicated in the comments (which then has a wide black border), or top of the physical screen.

Is there a command line tool Linux, or a combination of secret keys or something to use on the host computer, what can come out of the instance of VMWare what she believes is in full screen mode? Some WM_WHATEVER message I can send to it? Another option?

Hello

Don't know if you have tried this: CTRL + ALT + ENTER - this should you return to windowed mode.

Kind regards

  • Script / keyboard shortcut to switch to full-screen Fusion

    Just upgraded to Yosemite and Fusion 7 of Mavericks and Fusion 6. I have a script (which I think some time ago, I've seen here) that before would switch me to a full screen of merger: -.

    Tell application "VMware Fusion"

    activate

    c the value "Windows 8 x 32 (was VLS XP Home Edition product key)"

    the thiswinID value (identifier of the article 1 of the (get all windows whose name contains c))

    the window id thiswinID index value 1

    tell the end

    I now get an error message "error" VMware Fusion has been an error: can not get all windows whose name contains \"Windows 8 x 32 (was the key to product XP Home Edition VLS)------". "" "number-1728"»

    "Windows 8 x 32 (was XP Home Edition VLS product key): is the name of the Virtual Machine.

    I wasn't able to track down this error code again, but does anyone have an idea why the script no longer works?

    Thanks for any thoughts

    Unfortunately, it seems that VMware has decided to no longer support AppleScript that VMware Fusion 7 is not bundled with an AppleScript dictionary.  Take a look at the following discussion: VMware removed support for AppleScript in Fusion 7?

    How can I create a keyboard shortcut for windows 7.

    How can I customize keyboard shortcuts in Windows 7? I am able to do this on my work computer that runs XP.

    Shortcuts keyboard and variety or parts of these words are not yet looking for control panel.

    I found the device (keyboard) and attempted to find a box customize under properties. Nope

    I found the list of hotkeys but online there is no shortcut to eject CD.

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages

    Create keyboard shortcuts to open programs

    You can create keyboard shortcuts to open programs. Programs opening in this way is often simpler than opening using your mouse or other pointing device. Before you begin, you must create shortcuts for the program that you want to assign a keyboard shortcut. To do this, open the folder that contains the program, right click on the program file ' sexecutable and then click on create a shortcut. For more information about creating shortcuts to programs, seeCreate or remove a shortcut.

    1. Locate the shortcut to the program you want to create a keyboard shortcut.

    2. Right click on the shortcut and then click Properties.

    3. In the properties of the shortcut dialog box, click the shortcut tab.

    4. Click in the shortcut key box, press the key on your keyboard that you want to use in combination with Ctrl + Alt (keyboard shortcuts begin with Ctrl + Alt), and then click OK.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

      You can now use this keyboard shortcut to open the program.

    Notes

    • The word that doesn't appear in the box shortcut key until you press a key; then it is replaced withCtrl + Alt + the key that you pressed.

    • The new shortcut may not work for programs that have their own keyboard shortcuts.

    • You can not use the ESC, enter, Tab, space,. print screen, shift, or Backspace to create a keyboard shortcut.

    • You can also create keyboard shortcuts to open files and folders.

  • keyboard shortcut. (period) disable the classification in the selected layer

    I can't get my keyboard shortcut to disable the selected layer of ranking to work. Windows has the same Mac keyboard shortcut and I'm Windows.

    I use full screen and want to turn off a layer classification but cannot. I have to go back to the main panels and turn off the eyeball for the selected layer.

    Is it me who can not get this keyboard shortcut from. (period) to work?

    If I go on my pad and think that the. (period) is there, I find myself remove the selected layer using what, in my view, could be the. (period) there.

    This keyboard shortcut was reassigned and I use a pdf of Speedgrade obsolete reference? But this one is 10/12/2014.

    Everything could find your question! Re-entered Sg, played with touches of 'standard' period and paved num. Then tried to turn the NumLock... then, rather than being a temp power gimbal, the period key just to delete the layer selected. Not like a rocker... just delete the layer. Had to go back to history (Ctrl/Com - H) back on my bed.

    Then... you can check the status of your caps lock...

  • How do the "full screen"? ". Cannot display the parameters to make the change.

    The screen on my laptop was changed to mode full screen. Now the Firefox icon in the upper left is hidden by the full screen, so I can't turn it off. How can I do this?

    Don't worry; You can fix it quickly.

    Press F11. You may need to press and hold the FN key at the same time, depending on your model of laptop. F11 allows to toggle the mode full-screen.

    You can also move your cursor to the top edge of the screen. Your tabs should slide into the display. Let your cursor where he is and then do a right click. A menu will appear. Click on "exit full screen".

    Hope that helps!

  • Shortcut to maximize to full screen?

    Is there a way in which we could open programs using the full screen without having to find the "little green toggle?    It's wonderful to have a shortcut to "minimize", but unfortunately the reverse seems to be impossible to get.

    Control F goes into full screen mode (at least with many programs).

  • What are the keyboard shortcuts to use the component feature snap-in in Windows 7?

    One of my windows program jumps constantly at my primary monitor after clicking on apply. He does not easily slide back, Yes, is there a keyboard shortcut, or can I do a keyboard shortcut to send the BACK window?

    Try pressing the right arrow Windows.  The first time, the window should anchor right on your screen, do it again, and it should move to the next screen.  This work only, however, if the window is resizable so that Aero Snap can "seize".

    Otherwise, there are some public services that can help.  Some are provided with manufacturers of graphics card dual monitor, but searching for 'send to the next monitor' should find some other useful applications.  Your mileage may vary if, as these other 3rd party utilities may have the same inability to 'catch' the window.

  • keyboard shortcut to apply the paragraph tag

    I am experienced with FrameMaker 8, but just to start getting used to FrameMaker 9. A keyboard shortcut that I use constantly in FrameMaker 8 is Ctrl-9, type the first letter of the paragraph tag, and then press ENTER. If there is more than one, starting with the same letter, I keep just hitting this letter until it appears the tag I want. For example if there is a title 1 and a Title2, I type 'h' twice to get Title2. With FrameMaker 9, it seems that I have to type the whole word "Title2" before hitting entry.

    Frustrating when shortcuts favorites are messy. Is it possible to recover my old shortcut? Is there a quick way to apply paragraph tags in FrameMaker 9?

    Type down arrow after selecting the first of similar format names. For example, Ctrl + H 9 DnArrow moves to Title2, or whatever the second format that begins with "H".

    Consider using format names that have less of the same main characters. For example:

    Title 1 H 1

    2 H Title2

    1N Numbered1

    Numbered N

    1 typo displays 1 H Heading1; DnArrow moves to 1N Numbered1.

    Some people separate the abbreviation of the full name with an underscore instead of a space; i. e., 1H_Heading1, instead of 1 H Heading1.

    HTH

    Kind regards

  • How to remove the message "... now uses the full screen"?

    When you switch to full-screen playing a video, the message appears that the site now uses the full screen, which is often boring because it blocks the part of the screen for a few seconds. How this message can be deleted?

    In Firefox 40 and 41, you can probably remove this notification by setting full-screen - api .approval-required to false.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.
