Let me know how I can get it. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#6 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 15:55:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#6 DisplayFusion I will be putting together a test build to fix this issue this weekend. Would you be interested in trying it out? I have found it difficult to reproduce this error consistently, and as a result it has been hard to diagnose and fix. If you are able to reproduce the error every time it could help out quite a bit.

Haven't seen it hang in other scenarios. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#4 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 14:51:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#4 DisplayFusion DisplayFusion hanging like that is a separate issue that I am working on fixing for version 3.0.2. Does DisplayFusion hang like this every time you rotate your monitor, or just occasionally? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#3 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 04:23:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#3 DisplayFusion Almost works:

On the displaylink machine - works great! Thanks!

On the ATI machine - after the screen rotates, the multimon taskbar just goes away. If you right-click on the DisplayFusion icon to try to turn it on, it starts to draw the menu (alpha blended shadow), then hangs. You have to kill the process & restart to get it to come back to life. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#2 Sat, 07 Mar 2009 20:22:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/bug-multimon-taskbar-doesnt-work-with-monitor-rotation/?ID=9df5e073-7454-4b09-8539-8cb474a6145c#2 DisplayFusion DisplayFusion 3.0.1 has just been released and should take care of this issue.

E.g. going from horizontal (1680x1050) to vertical (1050x1680) the taskbar appears about 2/3 of the way down the monitor and wraps around several times. It's placement also blocks apps from maximizing to the full size of the screen.

Verified on two machines, latest drivers and WinXP on each:
Machine 1: DisplayLink USB display
Machine 2: ATI HD 2400 XT dual-head card

DisplayFusion 3.0.0 on each. ]]>
