Managing Virtual Machines 
31 
 
You can also use the Parallels Virtual Machines list (p. 27) and the Virtual Machine menu controls 
to start, stop, pause, suspend, resume, reset, or shut down the virtual machine. 
Switching the Virtual Machine View Modes 
While running a virtual machine you can switch between the following view modes: 
ƒ 
Window mode. In this mode the virtual machine screen is displayed as a separate window. 
This is the default view mode. 
ƒ 
Full Screen mode. In this mode the virtual machine screen is expanded to occupy the whole 
of your physical computer's screen. 
ƒ 
Coherence mode. In this mode the virtual machine desktop is invisible so that you can see 
the virtual machine applications windows in Mac OS X and work with them side by side 
with your Mac OS X applications. 
ƒ 
Modality mode. In this mode you can view the virtual machine and the programs running 
inside it in a transparent scaled window while working in Mac OS X. By default this 
window appears on top of all opened windows, so you can supervise your virtual machine 
during your work in Mac OS X. 
To change view modes use the View Mode menu in the lower right corner of the virtual 
machine window.
