Then I have tried running the game and alt+tab out, this does the same thing as before I bought display fusion, I could always access the second monitor this way. The issue I have now is that the game will minimise when I use the mouse on the second monitor, I need to be able to transfer information from the game screen into a document on the second monitor, which I can't do when I can't see it ]]> RE: Accessing Secondary Screen while in Fullscreen Game https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/accessing-secondary-screen-while-in-fullscreen-game/?ID=bcd51f22-5b41-4e2b-bedb-de3269792d4a#2 Fri, 18 Jan 2019 21:27:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/accessing-secondary-screen-while-in-fullscreen-game/?ID=bcd51f22-5b41-4e2b-bedb-de3269792d4a#2 DisplayFusion Could you try this?

  • Open the Steam overlay
  • Run the hotkey (you should hopefully hear the notification sound now)
  • Close the Steam overlay
  • Alt+Tab out, does it work?

I have set prevent window deactivation to Shift+ctrl+/ so I can use discord without having to come out of the game (Euro Truck Simulator 2), with little success as it does not appear to work, nor do I hear any sound when these keys when they are pressed, thus I am locked into the game unless I use shift+' to use in game overlay, this is one of the reasons i bought df in the first place.
Please help ]]>
