We have a how-to guide for the Triggers feature here: https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/working-with-triggers/?ID=43b31609-4ec6-4478-99f8-a1f11e9793f7

If you still run into any trouble, definitely let us know.

Thanks!


A question on this.. your solution works great.. except for apps that like to package themselves in version folders.
For example Discord. It's filepath changes every update, i.e.
"C:\Users\cars10\AppData\Local\Discord\app-1.0.9008\Discord.exe"

such that after each update the trigger no longer works.
If it could look for a specific executable name, this would be solved.
Is there any way to do that?

Can anyone help me make a rule to force a programs to open on a specific monitor? Thank you! ]]>
