Small change to #2 above >>>

I switched from a:
  • Scripted Funtion
to
  • Custom Funtion

Call a Windows Batch Script instead, to KILL the application (Remote Desktop).
Executable for Remote Desktop = "mstsc.exe":

Code
Copy
Select All

taskkill /im mstsc.exe /t /f


This ends up working a little faster, but still, the Window moves to Monitor #1, is visible for a few seconds, before the Batch File is executed and kills the process + window.

Any ideas to NOT have window move to Monitor #1 - is greatly appreciated! 8) ]]> RE: Combo Trigger?

1) Create 2 Monitor Profiles:

a) Profile A [Single display]
b) Profile B [Dual displays]

2) Create a new custom Scripted Function to close a window (found in other discussions):

a) Scripted Function name = "Close Remote Desktop" >>>

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Drawing;

public static class DisplayFusionFunction
{
    public static void Run(IntPtr windowHandle)
    {
        windowHandle = BFS.Window.GetWindowByText("*Remote Desktop*");
        BFS.Window.Close(windowHandle);
    }
}


3) Create a new Trigger:

a) Event: " Monitor Profile Changed "
b) Monitor Profile: " Profile A "
c) Run Function: "Close Remote Desktop"


So this actually does WORK, but there is a timing issue.

When Monitor #2 is disconnected, the time it takes DisplayFusion to have Monitor Profile = "Profile A", kick in...
The window moves to Monitor #1, and is displayed there until the Monitor profile kicks in.

Is there a way, or an alternative, to speed this up, or to kill the "Windows Remote Desktop" application faster?

User of DF for years, and I'm a huge fan.

Non-DisplayFusion environment:
    A) Due to customer privacy Personal Information (PI) data >
    B) Window (Application = Remote Desktop) running on Monitor #2
    C) Window needs to be locked to Monitor #2
    D) Window cannot be displayed on Monitor #1

With DisplayFusion would like to:
    1) Force Window (Application = Remote Desktop) to always run on Monitor #2
    2) Not allow Window to be moved to Monitor #1
    3) IF Monitor #2 is disconnected = close window / shutdown application

Reading from previous discussion posts, this may be possible with a mix-mash of Monitor Profiles + Scripted Function.

Any thoughts of a DisplayFusion recipe that could accomplish this? ]]>
