Quickly Change the Screen Resolution

If you're working with a virtual machine in the Window or Full Screen view mode, you can easily and quickly change the virtual machine screen resolution. Simply click the View menu in the macOS menu bar, point to Set Resolution and choose the screen resolution you need.

Note: Set Resolution is available only in Parallels Desktop for Mac Pro Edition for virtual machines with Parallels Tools installed. And the Show developer tools option must be enabled in the More Options pane of the virtual machine configuration.

If you're working with the virtual machine in Full Screen on multiple displays, the screen resolution is changed on the monitor where you selected a new resolution.
