After the latest CrossOver update 24.0.4.37063, running EverQuest on full screen and then switching to another desktop (using CMD + < or > keys) crashes the game.

Mac Specs:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: Mac15,7
Chip: Apple M3 Pro
Total Number of Cores: 12 (6 performance and 6 efficiency)
Memory: 36 GB
System Firmware Version: 10151.121.1
OS Loader Version: 10151.121.1

1. Launch EverQuest - works
   a. Only Esync is turned on.
2. Login to EverQuest server - works
3. Character Screen - works
4. Pressing Command + Enter to set game to full screen - works
5. Load character to EverQuest world (game in full screen mode now) - works
6. Gaming in EverQuest - works
7. Pressing Command + < key or > key to switch to another desktop - game crashes
8. Even in Window mode, if the game losses focus or you switch to another app - game crashes

Will test further to see if there's a fix.

Okay, I think I found a workaround for the issue I encountered above.

1. Login to the game and set the game to work in window mode
2. Quit the game
3. Restart the game and pick your server
4. Once in the character screen, click on the Window menu option and select Enter Full Screen
5. For me, this has been the only way to be able to switch screens using CTRL + arrows.

DBG changed windowed and fullscreen functionality and is even breaking things on the PC side.
Also, in crossover if you run more than one instance instances don't get exculsive control of mouse and keyboard when in the foreground this broke when DBG issued a patch in June.
