Hi,

When I'm using the alt - tab functionality of DisplyFusion, I have to hit enter to select the windows in which I want he focus to be in. It really from DisplayFusion, since when I'm opting for not using the functionality, my alt-tab works normally. Is there anything I can do to have both this normal behaviour and the advantages of using the DisplayFusion functionality.

Thanks for your help. I have looked to see if this issue was documented but did not find anything.

I'm using Windows 10

Hi,

I'm running DFP 9.3 (Steam Powered) on a new Dell laptop with Win10. With DF running, when I Alt-Tab, the application does not select itself after I stop Alt-Tabbing. When I disable Alt-Tab in DF, or exit DF via Task manager or Tool Tray icon->Exit, the problem is solved. All of the DF Alt-Tab settings seem to behave similarly.

I read other Alt-Tab messages and didn't find this exact problem discussed. I have read that there are known Alt-Tab/Win10 issues but they seem related to games.

Edit - I found this previous discussion, with no resolution

Just the regular Alt-Tab keys, no macros or other sorcery.

Also, today everything is working fine, with no other adjustments. Alt-Tab performance seems normal, with Alt-Tab enabled in DF. Makes no sense.

did some testing with this, seems to only happen when alt-tabbing out of full screen applications or games. I use alt-r to mute my mic on discord, and when i tab out the alt key is stuck. I am a heavy macro user, but nothing is bound to alt.

Disabling the options for alt tab inside id display fusion allows the alt key to function as expected or closing display fusion allow it to work as well.

I will give you any other info i can provide to see this issue resolved as i miss the clickable preview when alt tabbing and i have been dealing with it as best i can for now

what else could i provide you? I have enjoyed this feature for years now, and i would like to offer anything i can to correct it.

using windows 10 home, fresh install as of the 24th of dec. issue started as soon as i got my games reinstalled, windows games, no problem, but anything full screen APPLICATION, it gets stuck. Things like youtube and videos in full screen do not.

i mean, wanna remote in and poke around to find what you need.... like this level of anything

stormworks, xcom 2, havent been playing too many others, but ill update as i find more

ok, these are the steps i did to recreate.

opened display fusion and enabled the alt-tab settings, first option.

then i apply and save, then open stormworks, once on the main menu, i alt-tab, and alt is stuck.

I am wondering if it has something to do with 'alt-r' being used as my toggle for my mic on discord, as this is how i noticed it in the first place. Given it is a hotkey and not a macro, i didnt think of it.

Ok, so tested without discord running and we might have a winner., further testing shows it is a conflict with discord using an alt key for a hotkey. removing the hotkey from discord allows it to work normally.

I do hope this helps.

nice, i am glad that turned out to be helpful info, due to me liking display fusion more then discord, i got rid of the hotkey for now, but i do hope they help fix it

I get the issue while playing Wurm Unlimited. I think it has to do with programs that can utilize alt as a binding in game. I have no issues with discord but i don't use push to talk

what version of window Ecarus, i had no issues till i upgraded to win10

Windows 10. But it doesn't always happen.

does it "ever" happen when discord is closed and exited

Can't answer discord is always open.

ok, the issue is with full screen games AND discord, so to help out, close discord for a bit and try to recreate it. With the method above, it is recreateable every time.

Not playing full screen. I run multiple clients in windowed mode that's why I use alt tab.
Lol not sure if I'm helping anymore.

Quit discord and it did it as well.

so you had the game running, and discord running, you tabbed out to close discord (right clicked the system tray icon), then went back to the game, hit alt a few times to unstick it, then tabbed again and it was still stuck?

Yep.
