Please let me know if the issue does show up again

I had misunderstood the issue, but we ended up getting reports of similar issues from a couple of other customers as well, I just forgot to follow up here.

Could you guys try out 4.0 Beta 12 and let me know if you're still running into the same issues? It should be all fixed up.

I am not sure you are following what he means, but I am seeing the same thing, especially in Excel.

It makes Excel unusable because clicking near the taskbar in Excel causes a different program to be pulled to the front - e.g. trying to use Save As and when you select a drop down, another program jumps to the front.

This isn't a usable mode at all, so you might as well leave the option turned off if it can't be fixed. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/40-beta-11-dragging-or-clicking-over-a-already-closed-preview-still-opens-the-window/?ID=7d6a9c3d-8de6-4a2a-88ef-5062a21b35a4#3 Thu, 05 Apr 2012 20:27:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/40-beta-11-dragging-or-clicking-over-a-already-closed-preview-still-opens-the-window/?ID=7d6a9c3d-8de6-4a2a-88ef-5062a21b35a4#3 DisplayFusion I am seeing something that may be related - if I have Virtual XP Mode open fullscreen on the second monitor, clicks on the small toolbar at the top of the screen cause the taskbar to pop-up over top of the virtual XP mode window - I don't think it should be responding to those clicks. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/40-beta-11-dragging-or-clicking-over-a-already-closed-preview-still-opens-the-window/?ID=7d6a9c3d-8de6-4a2a-88ef-5062a21b35a4#2 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:20:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/40-beta-11-dragging-or-clicking-over-a-already-closed-preview-still-opens-the-window/?ID=7d6a9c3d-8de6-4a2a-88ef-5062a21b35a4#2 DisplayFusion This is unfortunately a side-effect of the method we use to detect whether or not a file is being dragged over top of a taskbar button. This behaviour can be changed by disabling the "Focus window when mouse is dragged over Taskbar button" option on the Taskbar tab in the DisplayFusion Settings. It's not ideal, but it's the only way we're able to do it at the moment

After a couple of minutes "researching" the issue I've found that there is something wrong with the DisplayFusion previews - they're still somehow "clickable" even when they're already closed.

Keith, sorry to say that, but this time you won't get my usual two screenshots...
But I've got something better this time: A video! =)))
