Please let us know if you run into any trouble after updating.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#7 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 19:39:02 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#7 DisplayFusion Yeah, we didn't get a chance to fix it up for Beta 2, sorry

I can't guarantee a timeline, but we'll see if we can get it sorted for Beta 3

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#6 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 19:09:50 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#6 DisplayFusion I was hoping this would make it into the next update, but I see that it didn't. Do you have a timeline for a fix? I know, I know. I hate it when people ask me that, too. However, when working with three widescreen monitors, it's a lot of neck movement back to the main monitor to find the proper icon.

For now, I've turned on Show Window Text Below Each Item, but that's not the same. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#5 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 19:45:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#5 DisplayFusion That would explain the difference. I don't show the window text because I want it to look as much like the Win7 switcher as possible. Baby steps... ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#4 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 19:38:09 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#4 DisplayFusion Ah, that's perfect, thanks! I had the "Show window text below..." option enabled, looks like you've got it disabled. After I disabled it, I was able to reproduce the same issue. It's been added to our list, and we'll let you know when it's all fixed up!

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#3 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 19:34:03 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#3 DisplayFusion Well that was a little tricky to do...

I have two displays hooked up right now, not three, but the problem is the same. Primary monitor is on the right. Secondary monitor is on the left. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#2 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 19:27:09 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36#2 DisplayFusion Is it possible to grab a screenshot of all three monitors when the Alt+Tab window is open? On my system it looks exactly the same on all monitors

We haven't had a chance to work on the visual styles yet for Alt+Tab, sorry ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 02:25:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/alttab-not-showing-icon-overlays/?ID=632d684c-2dfb-42c3-934f-4402cc206e36 DisplayFusion I have three monitors. When I have the DF Alt+Tab switcher set to "Show on All Monitors, Show All Windows", I only see the icon overlays on the primary monitor. The switchers on the other two monitors does not show the icon overlays. Oversight?

Also, any progress on replicating the theme of the standard Win 7 switcher? I really like having it show on all three monitors, but I prefer the look of the stock switcher. ]]>
