Change the resolution of your operating system running in VMware and hope it will stretch the screen when chosen the correct values
Go to view and press «Switch to scale mode» which will adjust the virtual screen when you adjust the application.
It sounds to me as if you actually mean «linux guests» and not «linux hosts».
But in any case, I suspect you did not install the VMWare Tools: doubleclick on that icon on the Desktop that can be seen on your screenshot. It will install some drivers that communicate with VMWare that, among other things, allow to adjust the screen resolution dynamically.
When the installation process is finished, you’ll most likely have to reboot the VM.
How to get Ubuntu 15.04 running full-screen on VMware?
How can I change the screen resolution in a VMware Virtual Machine running Ubuntu to be able to view it in full-screen?
Your title is really confusing. Are you asking how to install Ubuntu in VMWare in the first place, or do you just need to know how to make it fullscreen?
If the above still won’t work try to increase the video card memory in VM settings. It worked for me.
No answer did work for me, I still see the console confined into a small box with long black margins inside VMware. Is there an updated solution for this?

This will enable some features like shared clipboard.
In the newer vmware versions goto view-> autosize-> autofit guest and in older versions go to view and press «Switch to scale mode » which will adjust the virtual screen when you adjust the application.

How to Make Ubuntu VM Full Screen in VMware Workstation
After installing a guest operating system (OS) on VMware Workstation, the interface of the guest OS is displayed in a windowed mode by default. Moreover, the size of that window is usually not big, and if you maximize the window’s size, the resolution of the guest OS user interface is left the same. In the majority of cases, working in a guest OS with low resolution is not comfortable.
Don’t worry, however, as it is possible for you to increase the screen resolution of the guest OS user interface as well as run a guest OS in the full screen mode.

Проблема, с которой можно столкнуться, когда вы просто установите Ubuntu
При установке инструментов VMware мы можем столкнуться с недостаточными ограничениями. Это потому, что мы не установили пароль root, когда мы впервые установили Ubuntu. Для нас удобно установить пароль root как можно скорее.
Введите в интерфейс командной строки
Введите текущий пароль пользователя, установите пароль
Выполните вышеуказанный процесс инструментов VMware на пользователях root
P S:

Введите пользователя root
