WhatTheHack, I thought to be quite good at debugging, but couldn't think of this myself.

I use StartupDelayer, so I can shuffle the loading order of stuff at logon/startup. I will swap XMouseButtonControl and DisplayFusion and report (sloths poop more often than I reboot).

Thank you again Keith! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#6 Thu, 20 Jun 2019 18:40:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#6 DisplayFusion It could be a hook chain issue. When it's not working, if you just restart DisplayFusion, does the anti-snag start working? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#5 Wed, 19 Jun 2019 23:17:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#5 DisplayFusion Arrgh the culprit is XMouseButtonControl.
I really need that util for my trackballs.

Now I'm trying all of it's tweakings.
Is there something specific I can do?
What could I write to its author?

Thank you Keith ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#4 Wed, 19 Jun 2019 15:56:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#4 DisplayFusion Thanks! The main hook processes look like they're running. Did exiting those other apps make any difference? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#3 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 22:36:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#3 DisplayFusion >you could create a Monitor Profile in DisplayFusion with the correct configuration, and then set that to load on startup using a Trigger rule.
I'll do that. The profile is already there.

>it sounds like the mouse hooks aren't loading for some reason.
Hmm I'd better disable the ton of mouse utilities I have and retry...
Among other I use: KatMouse, MouseImp, X-Mouse Button Control, 4T Tray Minimizer, Volumouse, ClassicShell (I know, I should update also that) and I was considering adopting AltDrag.

Here it is!

Thank you so much. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#2 Fri, 14 Jun 2019 19:10:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/trouble-with-mouse-anti-snag-feature/?ID=b1638d53-eefc-46d9-89c6-9d4bf612526d#2 DisplayFusion The display alignment thing would be Windows remembering and loading the wrong configuration on reboot. DisplayFusion can't prevent that from happening, but you could create a Monitor Profile in DisplayFusion with the correct configuration, and then set that to load on startup using a Trigger rule.

Regarding the Prevent Snagging feature not working any more, it sounds like the mouse hooks aren't loading for some reason. Could you send me a copy of your troubleshooting info?

First: the function "Prevent mouse cursor from snagging on unaligned monitor edges" stopped working for me with version 9.5; but also with previous versions it kept "turning off" by itself (like on hybernation or reboot); quotes are because the checkmark in the config remained "on", but the feature was not working; unmarking+apply+mark+apply turned it back on. Now this trick doesn't work anymore.

Second: alignment of my two displays works fine, but gets "erased" on reboot (survives hybernations). I can't tell how it worked with versions below 9.5

It' a single integrated display chip, with two monitors, Windows 7 and Display Fusion Pro 9.5
I feel like it's something like: at boot time the secondary display is "missing", some features get re-set, and then the secondary display gets initialized. Forgot to mention I used the display in extended desktop mode.
What debug data shall I provide?

Thank you

PS: I forgot to mention that I use 7+TaskbarTweaker, TClock and ClassicShell (maybe it's time to update this...) ]]>
