Here are the steps:

  • On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Reply with the file attached
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

Our taskbars do have an indicator for opened windows. What version Windows are you running? ]]> RE: Open windows on CURRENT display https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-on-current-display/?ID=79c527ea-7390-4042-9248-a8e5bbf3f353#5 Tue, 20 Jun 2023 00:54:59 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-on-current-display/?ID=79c527ea-7390-4042-9248-a8e5bbf3f353#5 DisplayFusion

To fix #1, you can create a Trigger rule like the one in the attached screenshot.

Hopefully that fixes #2 for you as well :)


Hello. Sorry for reviving this old thread but I'm really, really desperately trying to get this feature to work.

I did exactly the same, same thing shown in the screenshot, but alas, nothing works and at this point I feel like I've tried everything this 40$ software offers. I saved the trigger and made sure it was enabled, but whenever I open a new window, no matter if it's from the windows taskbar or the DF taskbar, it still always shows up on the monitor I last closed the window on.

Furthermore, is there really no way to have a simple indicator on the taskbar to show if an app is opened, like what Windows does with the small bars under the taskbar icons? For a software the price of a full game? Seriously?

How can something this simple and this necessary be so hard to implement? Especially when it's that expensive?

I'm seriously at my wit's end here, so I would appreciate any solution you could provide. ]]> RE: Open windows on CURRENT display https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-on-current-display/?ID=79c527ea-7390-4042-9248-a8e5bbf3f353#4 Tue, 15 May 2018 06:42:29 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-windows-on-current-display/?ID=79c527ea-7390-4042-9248-a8e5bbf3f353#4 DisplayFusion Great a thing... I had a similar problem I was not aware of (primary is a TV)

It's nice to find a solution BEFORE getting hit by a problem !!

THANKS A LOT !!!!

I just started using this piece of software, so I know NOTHING about it. I would really appreciate some help on 2 of my problems.

So:
1. I want to have 2 monitors open and when I am on the right one (secondary) when I open firefox, I want that window to open on my current monitor used, but it keeps opening on the MAIN DISPLAY! how can I deal with that?

2. Biggest issue is, I am using my MAIN DISPLAY for pc things and mainly for PS4 gameplay....and when I play PS4 the SOURCE is on another HDMI not the PC one.
So my question is, how should I make the software temporarely make the SECONDARY DISPLAY the PRIMARY one until the source for PRIMARY DISPLAY is back?

The second issue wouldn't be a problem if I meange to make the number 1 work apparently :)

Thank you in advace guys :) ]]>
