I'll patiently wait for the complete Group When Full implementation. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#22 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 16:39:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#22 DisplayFusion No worries, glad to hear it! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#21 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 10:23:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#21 DisplayFusion Hi Keith

I think I know what the issue is.

I have the same issue, with Beta 2. It is showing allways the primary Outlook icon, for Mails, Word or Excel.
I have it also with other applications, like Firefox or IE on the 2nd Monitor.

The are all in one group

Thanks
Martin ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#17 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 02:09:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#17 DisplayFusion We haven't had a chance to implement the "Group When Full" option properly yet, but in 7.1 Beta 2, you should now have the correct icon for your Outlook message windows again

Please let me know if not! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#16 Wed, 17 Dec 2014 14:46:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#16 DisplayFusion Thanks Keith. I agree that is the right way to fix this in the end, and I look forward to seeing it. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#15 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 21:24:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#15 DisplayFusion Yeah, that's what we're hoping to do. The icon issue is basically because we don't properly support a "Combine when full" mode. It only showed up recently because we change the button icon logic. There are a surprising number of different places that you can get the icon from, and it's been a bit of a struggle to get every scenario correct ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#14 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 21:17:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#14 DisplayFusion I assume you mean the icon. That's cool. You guys pump out betas pretty quickly.

Maybe the next version can add the Combine when Full behavior as well...? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#13 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 20:37:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#13 DisplayFusion Ok, yeah, I see what the issue is now. We're releasing 7.0 really soon, but we should be able to have this fixed up for the first beta of the next version. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#12 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 20:00:35 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#12 DisplayFusion Combine when Full. I thought that's what Auto is, but maybe it's something else. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#11 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 19:32:25 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#11 DisplayFusion Ok, is your Windows taskbar set to "Combine when full" or "never combine?" ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#10 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 18:58:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#10 DisplayFusion This isn't the behavior of the Windows taskbar, though. If I have a single message window open on the primary monitor, with the Windows taskbar, then it shows with an envelope icon. If I move that window to my secondary monitor with the DF taskbar, then the taskbar icon changes to the Outlook icon. It shouldn't do this if it's the only Outlook window on that monitor. It should only do that if more than one Outlook windows are on my secondary (DF) monitor.

This wouldn't be as big of an issue if Auto grouping worked, but as I briefly mentioned earlier, it doesn't work like it does on the Win taskbar. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#9 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 18:51:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#9 DisplayFusion Ok, that makes sense then. We recently changed it to match the behaviour of the Windows taskbar if grouping is enabled. If you have Outlook set to minimize to tray (or move it to the second monitor so it gets removed from the Windows taskbar), the Outlook message window will have the normal Outlook icon on the Windows taskbar as well, no? That's how it behaved for me here... ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#8 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 20:53:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#8 DisplayFusion

Is Outlook pinned on your DisplayFusion Taskbar?

Nope

Is the Multi-Monitor Taskbar > Button Grouping setting set to Enabled?

Yes, it is. I can understand the icon changing if there's more than one window, but I get the icon with only one. Also, I tried setting the grouping to Automatic, but could never get that to actually group things. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#7 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 20:35:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-incorrect-icon-for-outlook-message/?ID=8d737890-6bb8-4b91-a238-cdcdf7ddf2de#7 DisplayFusion Ok, 2 questions:

• Is Outlook pinned on your DisplayFusion Taskbar?
• Is the Multi-Monitor Taskbar > Button Grouping setting set to Enabled?

We'll see what we can do to get it fixed up

I don't recall seeing this before b12.

I restarted DF and still have the issue. ]]>
