I'll email over the Swedish translation once we've released Beta 7 (should be today or tomorrow).

Thanks! ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#53 Mon, 27 Feb 2012 07:28:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#53 DisplayFusion No problem at all with it here either, well done its been a trying problem I think. You know what I am going to ask for now Jon?
The swedish language pack but if you have another beta up and coming I can wait for that version first.

You can mark this thread as 'Solved' Jon. ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#52 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 18:46:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#52 DisplayFusion Works like a charm.

Please let me know if you guys still have any trouble with it.

Thanks! ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#50 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 20:50:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#50 DisplayFusion Ok, strange! I did have to restart DisplayFusion after disabling the tray icons to make the issue go away.

Anyways, we'll keep looking into it and I'll keep you posted! ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#49 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:50:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#49 DisplayFusion At present Ilook http://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds/search/ilook but i have changed a few skins to see earlier on, but without difference.

I do run WindowFX 5 beta, Deskscapes and Tiles.

You need some system info? ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#46 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:33:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#46 DisplayFusion Haha, I love the illustrations

We haven't been able to fix up the flicker with the system tray icons enabled, but for me, it's still ok in Beta 5 as long as the tray icons are disabled. ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#45 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 18:38:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#45 DisplayFusion You will love this. Beta 5 now goes into high CPU flicker mode no matter which setting you use. Had to reinstall older version, untestable. don't you just love coding?

The best things to do are to first close DisplayFusion to see if the problem still exists. If it goes away when closing DisplayFusion, then you can also try reverting back to the previous version, to see if it's something that recently broke.

Thanks! ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#43 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 23:55:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#43 DisplayFusion

We had made some behind the scenes changes in Beta 3, that once we started seeing the issues get reported, it was pretty obvious to us which changes broke it

It's definitely strange that you were still having issues after closing DisplayFusion though.

Glad to hear it's working now though!

My question is basically this: if I notice any problems again, what should I do/check before I report the problem to you guys? ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#42 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 21:21:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#42 DisplayFusion @Alan: I've emailed over a copy of the Swedish translation for 3.5 Beta 4. Note that the new strings will be in English as they haven't been translated yet.

We haven't had a chance to fix up the system tray issue with WindowBlinds but we are going to have a look at it soon to see what we can do. WindowBlinds compatibility is tricky but we are aiming to get it the best we can. I'll be sure to post an update when we have one.

Thanks! ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#41 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:55:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#41 DisplayFusion Sadly beta 4 didnt change anything for me other than the language went back to English with the usual error message. I have reverted back to v3.4.1 so I can keep the language in Swedish but looking at alternative programs. The issue with windowblinds has been one thing or another for a long time now which alternative software dont seem to suffer from.

Which now it claimed doesn't exist. lol. English back. Btw, if trayicons active browser stops responding to input, you switch them off and suddenly all input gets processed. Like the event queue is blocked by DP. ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#39 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:43:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#39 DisplayFusion I'll try reinstall. Why it defaults to portuguese had me laughing tho. I can live without the the trayicons. I'm just keeping you informed. ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#38 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:38:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#38 DisplayFusion @petrossa: Not sure what could have happened with the language files! Does a reinstall fix the issue? As for the flickering, we haven't been able to fix it up yet, there's definitely some weird incompatibility with the WindowBlinds themes. For now, best bet is to just disable the system tray icons. I'll be sure to post an update if we can resolve the issue. ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#37 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:36:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#37 DisplayFusion We had made some behind the scenes changes in Beta 3, that once we started seeing the issues get reported, it was pretty obvious to us which changes broke it

Next beta it'll pick those again i hope.

I do not have a problem at the moment (now that I upgraded to v3.5.0 Beta 4), but I was affected by the Beta 3 mouse issues earlier in the week. I assumed that DF was not the cause, because the problem remained even after I restored backup settings and even when I exited the program completely.

This problem drove me NUTS for a few days, but I'm glad to see it got resolved. I just want to know how I can identify any future similar issue.

As info, I only experienced problems with two programs (Microsoft Word 2010 and Opera web broser version 11.61). I am running a fully-patched Windows 7 system with two NVIDIA graphics cards (GeForce 9800 GTX+ and GeForce GTX 460) and NVIDIA graphics driver version 285.62. ]]> RE: 3.5 Beta Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#34 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:23:39 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/35-beta-issues/?ID=4f9a3970-7ed0-4bc4-8071-2b9e5dd441ba#34 DisplayFusion I just had a chance to test with WindowBlinds, and it indeed is doing something crazy when the system tray icons are enabled. We'll look into this and see what we can figure out.

Before it was a problem with or without WindowBlinds loaded now its works perfectly if I dont load WindowBlinds. Slightly off topic, the Swedish language file for 3.50 Beta 3 DOES in fact work, appologies for the email stating that it dosnt. A restart of Display Fusion fixed that problem.
