Please let us know if you run into any trouble after updating.

Thanks! ]]> RE: Wallpaper changing with hotkey has slow, arbitrary delay as of v6.0....any fix other than going back to v5? https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wallpaper-changing-with-hotkey-has-slow-arbitrary-delay-as-of-v60any-fix-other-than-going-back-to-v5/?ID=0b12c5da-43d3-4bfe-836b-ee5fca0f0e88#2 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 19:01:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/wallpaper-changing-with-hotkey-has-slow-arbitrary-delay-as-of-v60any-fix-other-than-going-back-to-v5/?ID=0b12c5da-43d3-4bfe-836b-ee5fca0f0e88#2 DisplayFusion This is due to a change we had to make to prevent the wallpaper threads from stacking. We're planning to fix it up before 6.0.1 though :)

I'll post an update as soon as it's fixed in a beta.

The main reason I use Display Fusion is for multi-monitor wallpaper, which it has always done well. However, there is an added system tray notification message bubble as of version 6 (and or Windows 8.1?) that arbitrarily slows you down. I use the hot key ctrl+win+R to switch to next wallpaper. Often times, I don't necessarily like the wallpapers that it randomly gave me on my 3 monitors, so I just hit the hot key combo again. Now, I have to wait for about 8 seconds for the stupid message bubble to sloowwwwly fade away and be gone for a second before the hot key will do anything. You can pound the hot key combo 20 times and it won't do anything until it's done displaying the extremely pointless message.

I read every advanced setting and there is no setting to turn this off. I hid the system tray icon, yet it still has the delay.

I haven't tried reverting back to v5 yet. Hoping I don't have to, but this is seriously annoying me.

Anyone have fix for this? ]]>
