After installing the latest 9.7 last week, I now have a problem with splits. I have an ultrawide monitor in three splits. I only use the multi-monitor taskbar on the center split. With this configuration, when I have windows maximized to either the left or right split, the window goes past the bottom of the screen. If I add a taskbar to all splits, it works as expected. It also worked fine in the previous version. Having the taskbar enabled on all splits doesn't really work well for me, though. I run a virtual machine in one of the splits. If the window goes past the bottom of the page, I can't see the start menu of the VM. Having the multi-monitor taskbar enabled on the VM split just gets in the way.

I've attached the debug file and two screenshots. This is an empty excel file. On one screenshot, I have Excel open on a split that has the taskbar enabled (it's auto-hide, so you don't see it -- this is the full split screen). Notice the bottom of the window where you can see "Ready" on the left and the zoom options on the right. I then moved Excel to a split that has the taskbar disabled. Compare the bottom of the window -- those controls are gone.

I'm fine with not having taskbars on the splits, but if I disable the multimonitor taskbar, then I get one taskbar that spans the entire physical screen, which I don't want. I specifically do not want to have a taskbar on one of the splits.

Thanks, I didn't realize that would be the behavior. Unfortunately, it didn't change anything -- the same issue persists with that configuration. I have a workaround for now (moved the split taskbar to the top where it's more out of the way based on what I'm doing), so it's just more of an annoyance at this point.

Yes, correct. One 49" monitor broken into three splits. The only taskbar I need is the one in the center split. I use the DisplayFusion taskbar only to give me this. The default Windows taskbar spans the entire physical monitor, which I don't want.

I have a workaround for now. I have the taskbars enabled on each split. On the one split where it causes it's in the way on the bottom, I've just moved it to the top of the screen. Not optimal, but it works.

I tried both of these in previous troubleshooting with Keith. I can get the center split-only taskbar by either disabling the other taskbars -- or by disabling multi-monitor taskbar setting and using display properties. Either way gives me a taskbar just in the center split -- but both approaches have the same problem with windows getting cut off at the bottom in full split-screen.

I've installed the beta and everything looks good! I'll update if I discover any issues, but the clipped window issue seems to be resolved.
