I’ve had VPC installed for some time, but have only just started using it in anger, what with Whidbey builds and all. So I ahve Whidbey running on VPC with a bunch of windows open, plus several windows on main OS. I’m quite a heavy user of Alt-tab, so have a habit of using that to switch to the VPC image to check something. This is where the habit drives me mad, since once in the VPC window I just automatically Alt-tab to go back to the previous window (invariably Word, since I’m doing book work at the moment). But of course it doesn’t switch back because I’m now in a VPC windows, so it just switches between the windows in that image. Arrggghhhhhh. Driving me mad. Is there a way to turn Alt-tab off? And would that even work – what I want is alt-tab to actually ignored by the VPC OS and bubbled up to the hosting OS. Gues I’ll just have to get out of the habit.
VPC is driving me mad
