It's simple indeed.
I've added values "IsWindowsTaskBar" and "PhysicalLeft2RightIndex" in each "taskbars" subkeys and wrote a small script to reorganize them in one click.

Many thanks,
Maël ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5#4 Thu, 06 Aug 2015 18:48:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5#4 DisplayFusion Ah ok, weird that they stay changed! Here's how to update the IDs in the registry:

• Exit DisplayFusion (important!)
• Open regedit and navigate to HKCU\Software\Binary Fortress Software\DisplayFusion\Taskbars
• You should see a bunch of subkeys named with the monitor ID numbers
• If monitor 3 changed to monitor, just rename the 3 subkey to 2, and so on
• Start DisplayFusion

Hope that helps! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5#3 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 20:12:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5#3 DisplayFusion Sorry, I forgot to mention my config specs on this computer :
-I have 2x ATI graphics cards HD6450, with 2x monitors on each.
-16GB RAM
-Intel Xeon E5-2650
-Windows 7 64 bits

Even after rebooting (which is almost necessary after a driver update), the monitors ID still randomized, as the state after the driver installation.

Additionally, in the shortcuts manager, there is an option to copy selected shortcuts to another DF's managed monitor. It just miss another button to move, and it would be very helpful.

After modifying the registry, how to update DisplayFusion ? Should I quit and relaunch it, or maybe there is another tip to force refresh ? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5#2 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 19:36:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5#2 DisplayFusion Is it an NVIDIA card? If so, rebooting after a driver update should fix it up. For some reason some NVIDIA cards shuffle all the monitor IDs around during driver updates, but in my experience, rebooting after the update seems to set them all back to what they should be. If that doesn't work, please let me know. You can indeed make some registry edits that will make the re-configuration quicker ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 08:51:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/move-shortcuts-to-another-screen/?ID=67677532-e60c-4678-a960-0c772d23b4e5 DisplayFusion Hi all,

There is something which gets me crazy : the taskbar shortcuts management on DF's taskbars. Each time I install an update of my graphics drivers, the screens "identifiers" seems to be changed. During the driver update process, you know, screens goes black many times. At the end of the installation, DisplayFusion is completely "lost" in the customization of each taskbar. To improve my explanation, here is some scheme (screens ordered physically from left to right):

---BEFORE---
screen 1 : taskbar on top, no shortcut, no tray clock neither tray icons nor start menu, no "show desktop" button: just the empty taskbar on top.
screen 2 (main) : managed by Windows 7
screen 3 : taskbar on bottom, no tray clock neither tray icons nor start menu, no "show desktop" button, but 2 custom shortcuts
screen 4 : taskbar on bottom, no tray clock neither tray icons nor start menu, but 6 custom shortcuts

---AFTER---
screen 1 : taskbar on bottom, all custom shortcuts combined here
screen 2 (main) : managed by Windows 7
screen 3 : taskbar on top, tray clock displayed, no more shortcuts (they are moved to the screen 1)
screen 4 : no taskbar at all !

So each time I install a driver update, I'm forced to lost about 10 minutes to reconfigure all like before...

Firstly, this misconfiguration is (from my point of view) a bug. But it also shows something else : there is no way to "send" or to "drag'n'drop" a custom shortcut from one taskbar to another one. If it would exists, it would save me to waste my time.

Is there a workaround (editing a configuration file or registry database ?) to help me ? Could you push this feature in the next release ?

Thanks,
Maël ]]>
