Visual Studio on OS X under VMWare Fusion in "Unity" view

Question

I'm developing using Visual Studio 2010, a MacBook Pro, VMWare Fusion, and Windows 7. When I put Fusion into Unity view, I get a strange and very annoying behavior from VS 2010: As I type, when an Intellisense window pops up, it steals the keyboard focus. Then I can't type any more until I press "escape" (often multiple times) to make the Intellisense windows go away. This generally happens several times while typing a single program line.

This problem does not occur in "Full Screen" view.

My reason for using Unity is to have Windows apps on multiple monitors.

Is there a way to get VMWare Fusion's Unity view to work with Visual Studio?

Answer 1

The answer I've found is to disable intellisense.

Select Tools/Options on the menu. On the Options dialog box, select Text Editor, then select the language you use, then select "General". Uncheck "Auto list members" and "Parameter information".

This seems to work on all recent versions of Visual Studio including 2012.
