I thought the movement of the windows was DF, guess it was the system still making adjustments. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#11 Thu, 01 Aug 2019 15:03:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#11 DisplayFusion Thanks! It looks like there are still some "WM_DISPLAYCHANGE" events happening (Window reconfiguring the displays) around the same time the Trigger runs the function. Could you try upping the delay in the Trigger rule to 10000? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#10 Thu, 01 Aug 2019 00:46:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#10 DisplayFusion Attached is the log from a failed restore attempt at approximately 7:40 PM. I verified beforehand that the Trigger function was enabled and that this specific Trigger was enabled. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#9 Wed, 31 Jul 2019 20:07:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#9 DisplayFusion Good Q. Let me catch it when it doesn't restore next time. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#8 Tue, 30 Jul 2019 01:50:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#8 DisplayFusion Thanks! Was this new log captured when it didn't restore correctly? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#7 Mon, 29 Jul 2019 21:49:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#7 DisplayFusion After reading this, I realized I had not seen the windows even shift when logging back in. Sure enough, I had disabled the Trigger while resetting the log previously. I have attached a new log, logging in @ 4:43, with the Trigger enabled.

Interestingly, I tried logging off/back on a half dozen more times and the windows were properly set four of the intervals. It seems the resetting of log/disabling/re-enabling the Trigger reset something so it fires properly most of the time now. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#6 Mon, 29 Jul 2019 21:11:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#6 DisplayFusion Thanks! According to the log the Trigger rule didn't fire at all, which is super weird. Could you send me a backup of your settings?

I entered the desktop session at 10:35, not certain of seconds. I cleared logfile prior to logging off and back in and did not execute the function script manually. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#4 Mon, 08 Jul 2019 19:20:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#4 DisplayFusion Ok, could you send over a debug log? I only want to see what happens in the log when it runs from the Trigger, so please don't run it manually before sending the log.

I tried several iterations of logging out/back in. I then turned the Trigger back on, logged out/back in several times. The Trigger functioned as created the first time, which is rare, and failed several more log in attempts. Each time, I successfully executed the Restore function manually. It's not a time issue as the trigger executes every time, it just doesn't restore the windows. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#2 Mon, 08 Jul 2019 17:49:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1#2 DisplayFusion If you disable the Trigger rule and run it manually, does it fail the first time, but succeed the second time? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1 Sat, 06 Jul 2019 15:08:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/restore-windows-function-on-desktop-unlocked-trigger-not-functioning-properly/?ID=1e46492e-c8eb-4c8e-a694-d1e46b829bf1 DisplayFusion Although my 'Restore Window Positions From Last Saved' Trigger executes and I can see windows move slightly, it does not properly re-position the windows. As soon as I execute this function manually, it works as scripted. Any reason why this is not working upon my desktop unlocked? ]]>
