We finally found the cause of the taskbar preview glitches and they're all fixed up in the latest DisplayFusion beta version :)

It's been over a year and a half.
It appears to have something to do with how it generates the thumbnails when they switch sizes based on the number of windows. ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#57 Thu, 05 May 2016 15:31:50 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#57 DisplayFusion Haha, nice, glad to hear it! It turns out the Alt+Tab icon overlap and the Taskbar Preview pop-up overlap are not related after all, so that one's still open on our list. ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#56 Thu, 05 May 2016 01:25:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#56 DisplayFusion

I have discovered that I work more off the icon than anything else, as I don't have the window text displayed. Is there any light at the end of this tunnel? ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#50 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 19:53:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#50 DisplayFusion I've just re-tested the Alt+Tab icon overlapping issue and was able to reproduce it again.

Icon issue is there on the second Alt+Tab taskbar showing, with no TeamViewer running.

Again, this happens only on my non-primary monitor. Could it be some sort of coordinate transposition mistake? Just throwing ideas out. ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#48 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 21:51:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#48 DisplayFusion I think the TeamViewer factor is a red herring. I just applied the latest update here on my PC. and I already have the Alt+Tab issue. I have TeamViewer running, but have not connected remotely since applying the update.

Just exited DF and started up again, and I get the issue right away. It's not sporadic for me on either PC. It happens all the time. ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#47 Wed, 03 Feb 2016 19:56:14 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#47 DisplayFusion Yeah, I've been connecting to my home computer via TeamViewer for a couple of weeks without rebooting, and still can't reproduce this issue when I return to the console :( ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#46 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 22:04:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#46 DisplayFusion I don't see that I ever replied.

I continue to have it on a different m6600 with win10 pro, triple monitor, and an amd firepro m6100. I originally thought it was caused by rendering issues from the preview size changing due to the number of windows changing, but now i notice that other apps with only 1 window seem to have other windows behind them as well, not just chrome which is where I have been noticing it. I don't see it with Alt-Tab but I only use it on the primary monitor.

I did just notice a separate issue, if I have excel open on my 2nd monitor, and open 2 docs it is shown on the primary taskbar as well as the 2nd one. ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#40 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 17:17:50 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#40 DisplayFusion @drm: I've merged your post into an existing topic for this issue :) ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#39 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 17:08:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#39 DisplayFusion Not yet, sorry :( ]]> RE: Taskbar preview images include next window behind the one it should https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#38 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 15:41:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-preview-images-include-next-window-behind-the-one-it-should/?ID=1999e594-8637-4bd8-be83-9a52f279f2ea#38 DisplayFusion Any progress on this issue?
