Principles of Working With Parallels Desktop 41
You can define two hot key combinations:
 For switching a guest OS window to the Full Screen mode and back. The default hot key
combination is Ctrl+Alt+Enter.
 For switching a guest OS window to the Coherence mode and back. The default hot key
combination is Shift+Ctrl+Alt.
 For releasing the keyboard and mouse input to the primary OS. The default hot key
combination is Ctrl+Alt.
You can set your own hot key combinations for each case. The key combination must include a
key and one or several modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, or Shift).
To define new key combination, do the following:
1 Select one or several modifier keys.
2 To add an ordinary key, double-click the Key field and press the corresponding key on the
keyboard.
Note: If you installed Parallels Tools, you can release the mouse and the keyboard input to the
primary OS without pressing the hot key combination. See the Capturing and Releasing the
Keyboard and the Mouse section (p. 85).
