The L1 log doesn't seem to have enough info.
  • On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L2: Log Detailed"
  • Restart DisplayFusion
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Send us the DisplayFusion.log and DebugInfo.html files (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

Thanks! ]]> RE: Occasional problem with collapsed taskbar icons on displayfusion taskbars. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#27 Thu, 15 Sep 2016 21:10:03 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#27 DisplayFusion I'm pretty sure they all still work, I know if you have only a single instance of an application open on the DisplayFusion task bar you can bring it up just fine by clicking on it, you just don't get the preview and therefore can't select between multiple instances. The start menu also still works ]]> RE: Occasional problem with collapsed taskbar icons on displayfusion taskbars. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#26 Thu, 15 Sep 2016 19:21:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#26 DisplayFusion From the log, it almost looks like the DisplayFusion taskbar is hung, but that could be a symptom of another system-related issue. When this happens, does the Start button, clock, and system tray on the DF taskbar work, or are they not doing anything either? ]]> RE: Occasional problem with collapsed taskbar icons on displayfusion taskbars. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#25 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 13:52:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#25 DisplayFusion The DisplayFusionHookApp processes were still running when it happened ]]> RE: Occasional problem with collapsed taskbar icons on displayfusion taskbars. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#24 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 18:31:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#24 DisplayFusion Thanks!

Ok, thanks. Have you had the taskbar issue since disabling the Aero Colour option in DisplayFusion?


Okay, the past couple of days the behavior occurred again.

Kind of weird since it was occurring before with enough regularity to be annoying. Guess it wanted to annoy me by not happening after I reported the issue. :) Or perhaps it was replaced by that other jump list issue I reported. ]]> RE: Occasional problem with collapsed taskbar icons on displayfusion taskbars. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#13 Fri, 26 Aug 2016 20:45:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#13 DisplayFusion The option has always been off for me and I've had the issue since installing Windows 10 ]]> RE: Occasional problem with collapsed taskbar icons on displayfusion taskbars. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#12 Fri, 26 Aug 2016 19:21:14 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/occasional-problem-with-collapsed-taskbar-icons-on-displayfusion-taskbars/?ID=e25c31e9-ae94-4fdd-9d8e-7751cdae1023#12 DisplayFusion Ok, thanks.
