Unlike the other examples, a virtual machine usually captures all keyboard input. Your virtual machine software may have a way to release the keyboard capture so you can use hotkeys on the host.

For instance, VirtualBox has a so-called "host key" which you have to press first when you want to send keystrokes to the host system: http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html#idp12796048

I can confirm that on full view Celestia and Firefox the Alt+number switches my desktop. However NOT on a full screen virtual machine :(

Too bad if there is really no solution, cause it would make this task much more convenient.

It depends on the game, the type of fullscreen mode it uses, and what keyboard shortcuts it has implemented.

Although it's not a game, I've run Celestia (a 3D visualization program) in full screen mode (e.g. on Desktop #1) and used Dexpot's hotkeys (alt-2, etc.) to switch to other virtual Desktops. Celestia's full-screen display is shown only when I select the virtual Desktop where Celestia is running.

If alt-Tab (Windows' native "switch to another window" keyboard shortcut) works, as a side effect it brings the taskbar and Dexpot's window manager into view.

Hi guys, I am currently having issues such that I cannot switch to other desktops while playing a full screen game on the current one. The hotkey control doesn't work and the desktop manager won't appear over my game despite it being configured to "always on top"

I don't know if it is working as intended but if there is a way to switch desktops while playing my game at full screen please let me know :D

thankiez
