I haven't searched for reloading in my searches.
I will try the option to disable the start menu button as a first workaround. ]]> RE: Taskbar periodically popping up over a full screen video application https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-periodically-popping-up-over-a-full-screen-video-application/?ID=b3e825c7-8b23-486a-92b9-79abf281fb55#2 Tue, 03 Aug 2021 11:47:05 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-periodically-popping-up-over-a-full-screen-video-application/?ID=b3e825c7-8b23-486a-92b9-79abf281fb55#2 DisplayFusion

Hello all.

I tried to find the same issue on other threads but there are only similar but not the same questions.
Whenever I watch a video on one screen and click the mouse on another screen's application to avoid the video controls on the first for mouse moves (hitting the table or accidently touching the mouse), the taskbar appears over the fullscreen video and goes back into hiding after roughly half a second. It doesn't follow a specific rhythm when it appears, so it seems quite random.
I disabled the setting "Taskbar > Show taskbar in front of full screen applications when they lose focus", but this only made the taskbar disappear in general, but not fix the popping up issue, rather introducing it.

I also tried the "Advanced Setting > Ignore Full Screen Windows" but this keeps the taskbar visible.

Any ideas on how to fix this issue on my side or is this a bug in the Display Fusion application?
I have reset my Windows OS installation yesterday and reconfigured everything, so this happens also on a quite clean installation.


This is a known issue - See my post about this issue - https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-reloading-when-fullscreened/?ID=c9fff3eb-2442-47b2-a5a9-1c5a415dbe50 ]]> Taskbar periodically popping up over a full screen video application https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-periodically-popping-up-over-a-full-screen-video-application/?ID=b3e825c7-8b23-486a-92b9-79abf281fb55 Fri, 30 Jul 2021 08:50:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-periodically-popping-up-over-a-full-screen-video-application/?ID=b3e825c7-8b23-486a-92b9-79abf281fb55 DisplayFusion Hello all.
