Fusion (May update and forward). Browser keeps disappearing or get unattached from window

As I describe in the title, the browser keeps getting unattached from the main window and disappears behind it. It usually happens after sleep or when changing screen/resolution. I run Fusion on macOS Sonoma 14.5 on a MacBook Pro 14" M1 MAX.

It's super-frustrating, bordering on unusable! It's always been an on/off issue with Fusion on macOS. There seem to be some ongoing discrepancies between how macOS and builds of Fusion handles windows. The browser and other GUI elements in Fusion seems to be located inside their own transparent window that can become unattached from the main window. Especially if you use separate finder workspaces or run the program in fullscreen mode. And since the browser tree is an integral part of working with designs in Fusion it's maddening to have it disappear.

Yup very annoying when launching mission control and Fusion takes up 3 different spots lol. Been like this forever.

 

Any "fix" like the one above is just temporary if it works at all.

 

For me opening quicktime helps. You can just close quicktime as soon as it launches.

Why Quicktime? It seems completely arbitrary that Quicktime have influence on the way Fusion renders it's various windows.

No idea, but that usually works for me.

 

Just "Command + Space bar" keys to open spotlight

Type "Quick"

Hit "Enter" key if Quicktime Player is already highlighted grey

"Command" + "Q" keys to quit.

 

That's it.
