I use an application called TrackIR. It uses a camera to see which way your head is pointing to set your perspective in a game. The application window of track IR has settings as well as a display to dwpict what the camera sees and useful only for calibration, etc.
I have two monitors and want the trackIR window to be moved to the second monitor, however display fusion is ignoring it.
I do have a window position profile set like this:

and I have a trigger to run like so:

How can I troubleshoot this?

Do any of our other functions work if you try to fire on that window manually, like the "Move window to next monitor" function?

yes the standard built in functions work with a hotkey combination - for example shift ctrl Z can be assigned to move and resize a window and the TrackIR window is moved and resized when it is in the foreground. However this same hotkey combination does nothing when it is assigned to a custom function - "Load windows Position profile : Flight" where I have defined the window position profile "flight". I even tried changing the parameters to all positive numbers because I thought display fusion was choking on a negative number, but even this window position profile is ignored

The negative numbers shouldn't effect this, those are just based off the 0,0 location from your primary monitor. Can you try disabling the "Process Filename" and "Window Class" match conditions, and see if that works?

Actually, I spoke too soon. Every time I turn on the PC, those options get checked again and thus the window position profile does not work. How can I get the 'unchecked state' of wondow name and window class to persist? I do click OK and then I click apply and finally ok again to dismiss the settings dialog so I dont know what else I can do.

Are you re-saving the profile each time the computer starts?

EACH time? I made the profile, applied, saved and exited. Why should those checkboxes get checked if I restart the pc?

If you were re-saving/overwriting the profile it would wipe those settings and re-save them with the default (all match conditions checked).

If you save the profile, exit DisplayFusion and re-open it, are the settings changed?

The settings were initially not sticking. I tried unchecking only 1 checkbox, window class, and now the settings stick through reboots. And it runs properly. Thank you.
