We'll blacklist wizmo.exe from getting hooked and titlebar buttons in future versions so that the Compatibility rule won't be needed any more :) ]]> RE: DF won't allow monitor off. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#5 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 01:10:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#5 DisplayFusion Thanks so much for taking the time to investigate my problem. I had to also 'disable the title bar buttons (this application
only)'. Then it works fine. Problem solved. ]]> RE: DF won't allow monitor off. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#4 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 21:24:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#4 DisplayFusion Tested and confirmed! Could you try adding a Compatibility rule on the Settings > Compatibility tab for wizmo.exe, and in the rule, enable the "Disable Application Hooks" option? That seemed to fix it up for me :)

Thanks! ]]> RE: DF won't allow monitor off. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#3 Tue, 04 Feb 2014 20:55:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#3 DisplayFusion Thanks Ken, I'll test this out as soon as I get a chance and I'll keep you posted on what I find out. ]]> RE: DF won't allow monitor off. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#2 Tue, 04 Feb 2014 19:23:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/df-wont-allow-monitor-off/?ID=73d1d93b-8118-4ef7-9b67-534f1bffd4f1#2 DisplayFusion This is the program made available by Steve Gibson.

This is the shortcut used to initiate the monitor shut off,

This program shuts down the monitors
while I am away for a period of time. With DF running, the monitors will not shutdown. As I execute the program, the monitors
go dark for a short period and then reemerge. Is there a setting that I can activate/deactivate that may relieve this situation? ]]>
