Strange, I tested it here and it doesn't move the network icon. Can you send me a debug log? 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


Here is my log file. I cleared the log before testing, so no timestamp needed.

I opened the Calendar button first (works), then Sound button (does not work), then the Internet button (does not work) ]]> RE: 2nd monitor Taskbar clock/date display issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#35 Tue, 29 Oct 2024 13:23:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#35 DisplayFusion Strange, I tested it here and it doesn't move the network icon.

Main display text was correctly showing a 4 digit year.
(Windows 10 Pro) I assume path below is the same for nearly all Windows Versions.
It is more of a work around than a fix. If you don'f care about the 4 digit year, go to:
Control Panel --> Change Date and Time --> Change Calendar Settings --> Change Short Date to MM/dd/yy.
This make the year 2 digits, rather than 4 and shows the date correctly on my 3 extra monitors. ]]> RE: 2nd monitor Taskbar clock/date display issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#30 Wed, 02 Oct 2024 14:53:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#30 DisplayFusion @Justin: I will put that request on our list :) ]]> RE: 2nd monitor Taskbar clock/date display issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#29 Sun, 29 Sep 2024 05:51:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#29 DisplayFusion Seeing as how difficult it is to fix the scaling, is it possible to have an option to open the window on the main monitor instead of the monitor with the displayfusion taskbar? ]]> RE: 2nd monitor Taskbar clock/date display issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#28 Fri, 12 Apr 2024 21:08:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/2nd-monitor-taskbar-clockdate-display-issue/?ID=8b4233ae-d518-488d-bad4-e9048cf201a2#28 DisplayFusion It's still open on our list but as of yet there's no fix for it.

Do we have plan to get it resolved in the future release? Thanks a lot.

Yep, that one's definitely not fixed by logout/login. It's technically a Windows issue, Windows doesn't like that we move the calendar, but if we find a way to work around it in DF, we will definitely let you know.

Thanks!

But 100% display size is too small and Windows recommend me to set default 150%. So is there any way to adjust the external monitors clock size to normal when I am using 150% display size? Thanks!
Quote:
@Terry34245: Your troubleshooting info shows the primary monitor is 150% and the other monitors are 100%, so that fits with the open ticket we have for this issue.

@Stefan: Looks like both of your monitors are the same scaling level, so that's really strange! If you do a logout of Windows (not a reboot) and log back in, is the clock text still the wrong size?
