Hi there,
I have Monitor Profiles that include Splits and within those Profiles with Splits I have set a specific Wallpaper Profiles to change one of the Split Monitors to a JPG wallpaper.
However when switching to a different Monitor profile with a set wallpaper profile it is not loaded until I reboot and then despite switching to another profile (even a non-Split profile) the wallpaper doesn't change back. So the only way is to keep rebooting. Restarting DF does not fix it, I have to reboot.
I believe this started happening in Beta 4 and continues to occur in Beta 5. Have attached my Settings REG.
Is this a known issue, currently?

When you swap Monitor Proflies, if you open the DisplayFusion Desktop Wallpaper window, does it show the correct loaded profile there?

Hi Owen,
Yes the correct profile is showing in Desktop Wallpaper window (screenshot attached) but is not shown on the actual display.

Debug log attached. Time of profile switch is around 1:52:20PM
Another point is when I switch to a split monitor profile and later on I get a User Account Control (UAC) prompt in Windows 11 (i.e. installing an app), I can see the wallpaper in place correctly. Once I approve the UAC prompt it disappears again.

Thanks!

Hi Owen,
I see 11.2 Beta 6 is now out. The issue still occures. Shall I go ahead and recreate a log in the same way? Thanks.

Hi Owen,
I have tested this out in the new Beta 8 and no change. Is a fix still pending or need more logs again? Was really hoping a fix was coming in Beta 8.
We did have some changes we were hoping would fix this up. Could you send me an updated log from beta 8?

No improvements with 12.0 which is frustrating given I raised this during the beta stages and now 12.0 has gone prod.
This is a real show stopper for me. Shall I try recreating all my monitor profiles to fix?
Some guidance here would be appreciated.
I'm sorry to hear that! Can you explain exactly what the issue you're having is? Is it that when you load a monitor profile it isn't applied correctly? Is it related to the monitor resolutions or just splits? And how does the wallpaper relate to the issue for you? It sounds like there might be 2 issues here but I'd like to try and understand it better. Thanks!

Hi Jon,
Happy New Year!
I've attached a PDF that explains the issue a bit better. Its the wallpaper setting within splits that is the issue.
Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks Jon - this beta (12.0.2 beta 4) appears to have fixed it!
