I totally missed that extra 0 in your screenshot, good catch! Glad to hear you were able to get it sorted out ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#11 Tue, 02 Jun 2020 20:43:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#11 DisplayFusion I launched it from the start menu.

It's all good, I've got it sorted now. The issue was the wait time was set to 10000 ms (10 seconds) instead of 1 second. I've also modified the trigger to fire when the Windows Text matches the keyword I specified. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#10 Tue, 02 Jun 2020 20:40:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#10 DisplayFusion Ok, but did you open RDM using the system tray icon, or launching it from the Start menu/desktop? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#9 Tue, 02 Jun 2020 20:21:22 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#9 DisplayFusion I enabled logging as per your instructions.

I then opened Devolutions RDM and took an export of the log.

You can do a test by downloading Devolutions RDM (there's a free version).

The log isn't showing that the Trigger fired at all. Which app did you open for this debug log? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#5 Mon, 01 Jun 2020 05:15:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#5 DisplayFusion Here you go. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#4 Wed, 27 May 2020 22:00:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423#4 DisplayFusion Ok, strange! Could you send me a debug log?

• On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
• Open the app that's configured in the Trigger rule 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

Everything looks like it's configured correctly. If you try to use that custom function in a Trigger for a different application, does it work? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423 Sun, 24 May 2020 20:37:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/custom-function-not-working-in-triggers-but-works-manually/?ID=9e17e293-ca3f-48df-a4fc-be702c40c423 DisplayFusion Hi all,

I've created a custom function that looks like this:

The function is added as a titlebar button and it works if I click on it to trigger it manually. However, if I set it to trigger automatically, it just doesn't do anything. The trigger is simply just when an app is launched, then run the function. I'm also using a built in "maximize window" function and that works fine. It's just the custom function that I've created that doesn't run automatically.
