I'll have to give that Aero Glass utility a test when I have some time and see what we can find out :) ]]> RE: Low Position of Start button on DF Taskbar with Beta 2 https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/low-position-of-start-button-on-df-taskbar-with-beta-2/?ID=be2c0a68-9aed-41a5-86ba-2c35a25d8501#14 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 21:59:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/low-position-of-start-button-on-df-taskbar-with-beta-2/?ID=be2c0a68-9aed-41a5-86ba-2c35a25d8501#14 DisplayFusion P E R F E C T O ! !

Ha, while I have your attention Keith: have you ever tested DisplayFusion for compatibility with Aero Glass by 'bigmuscle'?

http://www.glass8.eu/download.html

It worked handsomely on Windows 8.1 and now is an aesthetic life-saver on my Ultrabook with Windows 10. However, it was unstable on my Desktop '8.1' systems with dual monitors. Eventually, after he answered my Forum questions, I concluded the unnamed application in his analysis was my DisplayFusion:

http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/163725-aero-glass-for-win8-13/?p=1080528

HAVE NOT tried Aero Glass on my Desktop systems because they are not yet upgraded to '10'. But how lovely it would be have Glass in '10' there, too . . .

Anyway, thank you so much for running down the weirdness with sinking Classic Menu START button on DF Taskbar.

Every good wish ~ Hans-Peter ]]> RE: Low Position of Start button on DF Taskbar with Beta 2 https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/low-position-of-start-button-on-df-taskbar-with-beta-2/?ID=be2c0a68-9aed-41a5-86ba-2c35a25d8501#13 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 19:54:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/low-position-of-start-button-on-df-taskbar-with-beta-2/?ID=be2c0a68-9aed-41a5-86ba-2c35a25d8501#13 DisplayFusion Never mind, I believe we've gotten this sorted out now.

The DF Settings window's fonts appear normally — correctly proportioned — when Settings is opened on my Secondary Display, 1200 x 1920 Portrait mode. The Secondary Display [Monitor 2], on which the Start button displays way too low, always is in Portrait mode. Perhaps this is important.

I can reproduce the large button issue, but it's at the correct position on the taskbar for me. I can't figure out why there's such a large gap after the clock in your screenshot as well, but I'm guessing they're related :)

Pic attached. Also attached the custom button file I normally use.

Many thanks for looking into this problem!

I can't seem to reproduce that here though. If you switch to the Classic Shell "Aero" Start button, instead of your custom one, does that make any difference? ]]> Low Position of Start button on DF Taskbar with Beta 2 https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/low-position-of-start-button-on-df-taskbar-with-beta-2/?ID=be2c0a68-9aed-41a5-86ba-2c35a25d8501 Wed, 12 Aug 2015 00:55:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/low-position-of-start-button-on-df-taskbar-with-beta-2/?ID=be2c0a68-9aed-41a5-86ba-2c35a25d8501 DisplayFusion Re: DisplayFusion 7.3 Beta 2
Windows 8.1 Pro MC
Classic Shell Start Menu 4.2.4

Thanks for getting the Start button back onto the Taskbar in this beta. The attached pic will show that it is, however, positioned rather lower — by about 1.5 / 2 inches — than in the past.

Nonetheless, Start is fully operational and that is a blessing.

Good wishes ~ Hans-Peter ]]>
