Not a big deal. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-button-flash-when-activating-window-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=61a42b36-9099-4713-8632-bfe434415368#2 Sat, 27 Mar 2010 23:45:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-button-flash-when-activating-window-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=61a42b36-9099-4713-8632-bfe434415368#2 DisplayFusion How long is the taskbar item visible? If it's around 50ms, that is unfortunately the case on some machines. If it is visible for 750ms or more, it sounds like the hooks aren't loading correctly.

Whenever we change the focus from a window on the primary monitor to a window on the secondary monitor (via mouse click or Alt-Tab), the button for the window on the secondary monitor appears for a split second on the primary taskbar then disappears.

Anyone else seeing this?
