VMWare Fusion 6 on a MAC with Mavericks - Multiple Display Setup

$

Greetings - if I have posted this in the wrong place, please forgive me. This is my first post.

 

I'm using a 3-monitor set-up plus APPLETV as a fourth on a MacBook Pro with the Mavericks GM. I have upgraded to the latest VMWare 6 release.

 

Now that Spaces works on each monitor independently, it highlights a problem in VMWare (unless there is a setting I can't find). When I am in the VM, all 4 screens are of the VM.  When I swipe to another space in any of the monitors to a MAC window, I can use it just fine and all other screens stay as is.

 

However, and here is the problem, whenever you select any display and click to the VM, the other 3 displays all immediately are forced to the VM as well.

 

This seems to defeat the purpose of multiple displays with independent spaces. If I have video playing on the MAC side in one window and want to use Microsoft Outlook in the VM, I am out of look, because all windows go right back to the VM if I am using the VM in any one window.

 

I would love to hear if the solution is configuration or, if not, in the works to fix.

 

Thanks for the help.

 

P.S. Disabling the AppleTV as a fourth display in the VMWare environment does not work. Even though the settings indicate is not extended, it remains. I can't disconnect it and use it independently on the Mac side.
