Latest Parallels beta is impressive

Author: ero

# Views: 1664

The last beta of Parallels Desktop has a really cute feature, that is the Coherence mode. It allows to display all the windows of applications running within the virtualized OS among the windows in OS X. Its a really freaky feeling to have Windows XP windows among OS X apps. Seeing IDA next to Safari and XCode is quite an experience.
When one wonders how they did it, it comes as something that should not be specially complicated to implement. I havent looked at all into it, but my guess would be that they have Parallels walk the window list, get the geometry information and just capture those regions and display them as individual windows in OS X... its just really cool.
