DisplayFusion can prevent its own taskbar from coming to the front over full screen applications (there's a setting on the Settings > Taskbar tab for that), but unfortunately and it can't keep the Windows taskbar on the Primary monitor from coming to the front. Glad to hear you found a workaround though! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171#5 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 23:59:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171#5 DisplayFusion Really sorry to necro this thread, but I'm having a similar problem and this is the only place I've found that has it. Basically, my main monitor is 1080p while my secondary one is 1440x900. I usually run youtube videos at fullscreen on my main monitor, but when I try to do stuff on my second monitor, the taskbar on my main monitor renders on top of the video like in the attachment. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or is it completely unrelated to display fusion?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I've managed to fix the issue somewhat by setting the Taskbar to automatically hide unless you mouse over it, and it seems to have done the job, as I can watch videos without an issue now. I'll let the thread die. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171#4 Mon, 17 Oct 2011 16:33:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171#4 DisplayFusion Glad to hear it!

Thanks again! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171#2 Mon, 17 Oct 2011 15:29:46 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171#2 DisplayFusion There's actually an option in the settings for this

On the Taskbar tab in the DisplayFusion Settings, disable the "Show taskbar in front of fullscreen applications when they lose focus" option.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171 Sun, 16 Oct 2011 22:22:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-appears-over-flash-and-vlc-in-fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=af277d1d-1550-419e-83fe-78a2669ff171 DisplayFusion When you watch fullscreen flash video or VLC on secondary monitor and click somewhere on the primary monitor the displayfusion taskbar appears over the full screen flash video.

Ultramon does not show the same behaviour, i.e. the secondary taskbar stays behind full screen video both in flash and VLC.

I really like displayfusion, I hope you can find the cause of this and release a patch.

I am attaching a picture of the behaviour. ]]>
