Sorry to have wasted some of your time but everything was right after I uninstalled Virtual Display Manager. Although it wasn't running on my system, it has a driver that was messing up Display Fusion's readings. Again, sorry and thank you for the effort nevertheless!

As a side note, VDM has THE features that I look for the most concerning working with splits (windows in full maximized state, full-screen video on splits) and I've noticed in other discussions that some other users search for these features too, but it's not a actual solution because it's buggy as hell. Although Display Fusion does not support those features, it's much more reliable and offers plenty of other useful features, reasons that make me a happy customer! ]]> RE: DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#22 Fri, 18 Jan 2019 20:58:22 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#22 DisplayFusion Just a heads up that we haven't forgotten about this. We're going to add some logging for the next beta so that we can get some more info and hopefully track this down for you.

Thanks! ]]> RE: DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#21 Thu, 10 Jan 2019 18:04:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#21 DisplayFusion

Ok, so something is definitely weird here. The troubleshooting info indicates that DisplayFusion thinks the Windows taskbar is set to auto-hide.

Here you go, enabling and then disabling taskbar auto-hide did not change the behavior. ]]> RE: DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#20 Thu, 10 Jan 2019 16:10:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#20 DisplayFusion You can update to the beta on Steam, but there aren't currently any betas available. 9.4.3 stable is the most recent version.

No issues after restoring your backup either. I'm starting to suspect that maybe another app on your system might be contributing to this issue.

Would you be able to try disabling all programs from startup except for DisplayFusion, then restart and see if you can still reproduce it? ]]> RE: DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#11 Thu, 20 Dec 2018 16:15:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#11 DisplayFusion Tried 9.3, same behavior.

Could you attach a backup of your settings? (Settings > Options > Export)

Could you also try rolling back to 9.3 to see if that makes any difference?

Nope, fixed and always visible. I had the exact same behavior some versions before, then it was fixed on another version and finally it came back after updating from 9.4 beta 6 to beta 7. ]]> RE: DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#7 Wed, 19 Dec 2018 17:43:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#7 DisplayFusion Super weird!

Thanks for the kind words! I'm not able to reproduce that behaviour here. Does it happen with all windows, or only certain applications?


All application windows (re-checked with chrome, skype and windows explorer). Just installed the non-beta 9.4 and I get the same behavior, when I maximize a window by clicking the maximize icon or double-clicking the taskbar, the window is expanded vertically down to the bottom of the screen ignoring the taskbar. If I use Windows' native snapping however (by dragging to the screen's edge), that window is sized perfectly. I use a simple side-by-side horizontal split on a ultra-wide monitor.

I've attached a debug dump in case it might help. ]]> RE: DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#5 Tue, 18 Dec 2018 19:57:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5#5 DisplayFusion Seems to be working ok for me.

First, allow me to say thank you for the effort on continuously deploying new versions over the last few days.

Would like to let you know that this latest beta has a regression: windows maximized to splits are spanning the full screen height, ignoring the Windows Taskbar. This makes the bottom portion of the window concealed by said taskbar. ]]> DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Now Available! https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 15:09:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusion-94-beta-7-now-available/?ID=80f93120-df70-4433-be13-f2ae624c8dd5 DisplayFusion

We're very excited to announce that DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 is now available for download! This beta fixes a bunch of issues and adds a couple of minor features.

Important Notes!

  • The first time you open the Settings > Screen Saver tab, it might be very slow to open due to Windows Defender locking the .scr files for a long time during the initial scan

DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 7 Highlights

  • Added ScriptSettings for removing setting values
  • Initial support for Windows 10 insider build light theme
  • Taskbar and Alt+Tab improvements for detecting applications running on other virtual desktops
  • Compatibility with Hyperspace app
  • Unsplash wallpaper provider updates
  • Apps launched from the DisplayFusion taskbar now get the correct environment variables

Updating DisplayFusion

We encourage everyone to update to this new version today to take advantage of these improvements. If you've already purchased DisplayFusion, it's a lifetime license, so you can upgrade to this version at no cost! If you would like to see a complete list of all the changes, please visit the DisplayFusion Beta Change Log.
