VMWare Fusion and moving between monitors I'm running a Windows 2012 guest in VMWare Fusion 8.5.6 on my Macbook pro.

The VM itself is fine but the problem is: at work, my secondary display is a high-density Samsung, where I need things scaled up in the guest to be able to see them, but at home I use a standard-density Acer, where (at 200%) the text is enormous.

Is there a way for Fusion to auto-scale the guest based on the attached monitor?
With the help of Autofit command of view menu you can resize the guest display resolution. There are four commands listed below:


Fit Guest Now - Guest operating system display size to match current Workstation console.
Fit Window Now - The Workstation console to match the current display size of the guest operating system.
Autofit Window - Workstation console to maintain the size of the virtual machine's display resolution.
Autofit Guest - Virtual machine to resize the guest display resolution to match the size of the Workstation console.


As per your requirement, Fit Guest Now command will remain the best.
