It had been with Netflix via Chrome and Potplayer on the second monitor though I'm sure that information is less useful as everything is now working on this end. ]]> RE: Start Button in front of full screen application https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-button-in-front-of-full-screen-application/?ID=d8621fd6-3d4f-45cb-b327-690c5e28d4ec#5 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 21:57:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-button-in-front-of-full-screen-application/?ID=d8621fd6-3d4f-45cb-b327-690c5e28d4ec#5 DisplayFusion We've just released DisplayFusion 5.0, and this issue should be all fixed up.

Would you be able to list a couple of the full screen applications that you were able to reproduce this in? I tested with a full screen YouTube video, as well as a full screen Modern UI (Metro) application, but couldn't get the Start button to show above either of them.

Thanks!


I'm having the same issue on Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit. It happens with VLC 2.0.5., but only on my secondary monitor. The start button does not appear over fullscreen VLC on primary monitor. ]]> RE: Start Button in front of full screen application https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-button-in-front-of-full-screen-application/?ID=d8621fd6-3d4f-45cb-b327-690c5e28d4ec#2 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 01:58:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/start-button-in-front-of-full-screen-application/?ID=d8621fd6-3d4f-45cb-b327-690c5e28d4ec#2 DisplayFusion Would you be able to list a couple of the full screen applications that you were able to reproduce this in?

Everything else seems great, the start button appearance matching also seems better than previous versions. ]]>
