Configuring the Virtual Machine 192
Modality Settings
Using the Modality settings, you can configure the virtual machine appearance and behavior
when it is running in the Modality mode. In the Modality mode, you can resize the virtual
machine windows and place them side by side with your Mac applications. A Modality window
can be scaled to any size, and its content will still be active. This allows you to monitor the tasks
running inside the virtual machine while you are working on the Mac side.
To edit these settings, do the following:
1 Open the Virtual Machine menu or Alt-click (Option-click) the Parallels icon in the Mac
menu bar (in the Crystal view mode) and click Configure.
2 In the Virtual Machine Configuration window, click Options and select the settings name in
the sidebar.
You can configure the settings in this pane even when the virtual machine is running.
