All UWP apps run inside the ApplicationFrameHost.exe container process, but with the Trigger you can match on that process + the window title, which should do the trick ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-10-uwp-apps-and-trigger-support/?ID=c0097cc5-28a8-41b5-b3f0-a3b953abd4b0 Wed, 24 May 2017 19:29:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-10-uwp-apps-and-trigger-support/?ID=c0097cc5-28a8-41b5-b3f0-a3b953abd4b0 DisplayFusion Is this in the pipeline? Currently it seems that triggers can't act on UWP apps. They don't appear in the Select Application dialogue under the Process Filename condition in the Match Conditions section.

Even browsing to the location of the UWP .exe and selecting and configuring an action on a UWP app, the action appears to have no effect.

My use case is to automatically move apps, when they're opened, to the screen zones I've setup using Splits and Padding. This has worked incredibly well for traditional applications, but has no effect on UWP apps, which are becoming more prolific.

Is there something I'm missing, or am I right to conclude this isn't supported yet? And if not currently supported, is it planned? And if not, can I put in a plug for this feature?

Thanks for the great software, nonetheless. It's a headache saver for my workstation! ]]>
