Win 10 home, 64bit
Displayfusion 9.1 - latest version
I'm running adobe (9pro - 9.5.5)

When using the hand tool in adobe to scroll (click and hold, slide mouse up or down to move a page) if the mouse icon moves over a displayfusion taskbar with another tab and hovers over it for a little over 1 second, displayfusion detects a mouse click and switches to that program.
So,
- Mouse depressed fully
- Mouse icon moved over taskbar, over top of another program
- Windows switches focus to that program
- Mouse key still depressed

I've tried it with other similar things, scroll bars but I don't have really many other programs that have a hand tool type action to compare it with.

If you can think of what i can give you to help show this, let me know. I've restarted once already and it still occurs. I've been running Win10 for a few months but normally i don't use the hand function in my day-to-day so it wouldn't be too noticeable.

If you disable the "Focus window when mouse is dragged over taskbar button" option on the Settings > Taskbar tab, does that fix it up?

Yes. That seemed to do the trick.

The feature is good to have though so i'm hesitant to permanently keep it disabled. Is there different type of mouse dragging? It seems like it would be poor practice to have a internal dragging identically assigned as a file move dragging.

Unfortunately there isn't anything we can do to improve this :(

We've had a go at it, but the issue is that we can't check what's actually being dragged, we can only check if the mouse button is down when it's positioned over a DF taskbar button. It used to be an issue with scroll bars as well, but Microsoft must have updated Windows to not report the mouse button being down if it's active on a scroll bar.

Sorry!

At least i get a clear answer, thanks for that.

Normally it shouldn't be a problem, i'm more keyboard usually but everyone once in awhile you want to move with the mouse. It's annoying that it acts differently than a native windows taskbar, but i suppose that's the best option atm.

Thanks again for the response.

No worries! The Windows taskbar can do a bunch of stuff behind the scenes that we can't do, because it's part of the system :(
