I have Windows taskbar set to auto-hide and DF taskbar fixed.
If I fix WTB the problem goes away. Re-setting WTB to auto-hide brings it back.

1) Click on DF clock
(Mouse jumps to primary)
(Calendar spawns on secondary display)
2) Move mouse to Second display without dismissing calendar
3) Click on DF clock
(Calendar dismisses)
(Calendar spawns again; mouse not moved)

I've attached a log of this as well. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#10 Tue, 01 May 2012 14:55:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#10 DisplayFusion I enabled logging, immediately reproduced it and disabled logging, so the entire log should be relevant. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#9 Tue, 01 May 2012 14:30:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#9 DisplayFusion Keith,
I attach the log.
What I noticed today:
1) Click once on clock, mouse jumps to windows taskbar clock.
2) Move mouse back over DF clock, click again - works as it should this time.

Unfortunately I couldn't really see anything in the Troubleshooting info that would point me in the right direction. Would you be able to do the following?

• Enable "Logging: Important Only" on the Troubleshooting tab and click Apply
• Reproduce the issue, and note the time so I'll know where to look in the log
• Send me the %APPDATA%\DisplayFusion\DisplayFusion.log file (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#7 Tue, 01 May 2012 10:50:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#7 DisplayFusion I reverted to 3.1.4, and it happened, though not consistently. When clicking on a clock, one of the following would happen:

1) The mouse would jump to the primary monitor, and the calendar would appear on the monitor I clicked on (the original issue)
2) The mouse would jump to the primary monitor, but the calendar doesn't appear. Clicking again at the cursor's new position spawns the calendar, but on the monitor I originally clicked on.
3) The calendar appears on the original monitor and the cursor doesn't jump. This only happened once or twice (I tried several times).

I have three monitors, 2 x 1920x1080 and 1 x 1280x1024. I tried it several times (in both the beta and stable release), but the 3rd option only ever rarely happened on the 1280x1024 monitor. I also only got it to happen in 3.1.4. I can't say whether this is just coincidence or it doesn't work correctly at all in the new version or just one monitor.

I've attached the troubleshooting log from Beta 17. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#6 Tue, 01 May 2012 02:22:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#6 DisplayFusion I attach troubleshooting logs.

Could you attach the info from the Troubleshooting tab in Beta 17?

@Kyle: After testing 3.4.1, could you update to Beta 17 as well and attach a copy of the info from the Troubleshooting tab?

I'd like to compare both of your setups to see if there is something common, as I unfortunately haven't been able to reproduce the issue here.

However, the mouse cursor should stay on the DisplayFusion taskbar.

@Kyle: Could you try reverting back to 3.4.1 to see if it still occurs?

@Pete: Does your calendar just flash on the Windows taskbar, or does your mouse jump to the Windows taskbar? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#2 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 21:30:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b#2 DisplayFusion same here ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b Mon, 30 Apr 2012 20:38:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/400-beta-16-clicking-on-clock-moves-mouse/?ID=36b92a41-4b84-4699-bbbc-31ee02a9821b DisplayFusion Just noticed a small issue with the beta that was also present in Beta 15: when you click on a clock on the taskbar of a non-primary monitor, the mouse jumps to to clock on the primary monitor despite the calendar appearing on the monitor you summoned it on.

Edit: I also have a friend on 3.4.1 who has a similar issue. When he clicks on another clock, the calendar briefly flashes up on his primary monitor.

Edit: I've noticed that the calendar flashing happens for me as well. So my friend just does not have his mouse moving. ]]>
