Thanks, that's super strange! And if you just hover the mouse over, then it updates and everything is fine? The taskbar itself never gets hung or crashes?


That's correct. No crashing or hanging or high cpu on anything.

The Main (larger) one on the primary display is always correct though, only the secondary monitor and secondary time that fail.

The clock just changes background highlight (to indicate the mouse is over it), and about 0.5 seconds later the time is correct again. The hover is enough to prompt it to refresh.

I have similar set up on my work PC and don't have an issue.

How do the clocks in your component update? On a timer or something or is there an event that triggers the change? ]]> RE: Bug: Time not updating https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#6 Wed, 19 Jun 2019 15:58:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#6 DisplayFusion Thanks, that's super strange!

Most of the left monitor is clipped.

Left time: 8:44
Mid time (correct): 11:02
Right time: 9:11

Boot time: 7:45pm

I logged in and started using PC straight away, so doesn't seem like there's any relation to the logging in or start-up process. ]]> RE: Bug: Time not updating https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#4 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 17:16:46 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#4 DisplayFusion Sounds good, thanks! ]]> RE: Bug: Time not updating https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#3 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 06:48:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#3 DisplayFusion I was hoping that would be enough. I will try and pay more attention to work out a specific pattern.

Off the top of my memory, I leave my PC on 24/7. It's locked when I don't use it.

So when the bug occurs I'm probably unlocking the PC, playing around with it for 30-60 minutes, then go check the time and realise it's not updating.

Can't tell if it's every time or occasionally, will let you know once I work out more. ]]> RE: Bug: Time not updating https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#2 Wed, 05 Jun 2019 16:54:36 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf#2 DisplayFusion That's really strange! Does that happen shortly after startup, or does it take a while before it will stop updating? ]]> Bug: Time not updating https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf Mon, 03 Jun 2019 05:58:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-time-not-updating/?ID=4b1f4d94-7971-40b3-80d8-30c142162acf DisplayFusion I currently have the following setup.

Secondary monitor (left):
  • Start Icon
  • Taskbar
  • Icons (turned off)
  • Time

Primary monitor (right):
  • Split left (80% width):
    • Start Icon
    • Taskbar
    • Icons
    • Time
  • Split right (20% width):
    • Start Icon (turned off)
    • Taskbar
    • Icons (turned off)
    • Time (BUG ON THIS ELEMENT)

What I've noticed is that the time on the primary taskbar, right split does not update by itself.

Time on the Secondary monitor as well as the primary monitor's left split updates fine.

If I hover over the stale time, it will then update to the correct time.

This occurs on the 9.5 beta as well as final release. ]]>
