I have a three monitor configuration, left to right, Portrait, Landscape and Portrait. I have the multi-monitor taskbar enabled, every day I tend to remote desktop in early on then login on the console and then remote desktop in again later in the day. After some period of time of repeating this the mutli-monitor taskbar takes 60 seconds to reconfigure from it's remote desktop location to the actual monitor location. I watch it draw multiple bars down the screen one at a time and then remove the top one, one at a time until there is only one left at the button of each monitor. Sometimes I end up without a taskbar on the right monitor and have to exit DisplayFusion and start it again.
I am running Windows 2008 R2 x64 with two PCI-E video cards, NVidia GT220 and GT430
Any ideas?
Thanks, Mike
That's really strange! I'll definitely test this out here. To clarify, it doesn't happen the first time you login through RDP and then directly on the console, but only after doing that a bunch of times?

Yes that is correct it happens over time, at a guess it's maybe like once a week I have to exit it and run it again.

FYI not sure if my account correctly reflects that I did pay for Display Fusion.
Ok, no worries. I'll be testing this out here and I'll keep you posted as soon as I have some more news.
Thanks!

I did setup debugging and will let you know as soon as it repeats (probably mon/tues) but I just remembered another detail that I should let you know about when I remote desktop into the machine I use these arguments to remote desktop /w:2800 /h:1160

BTW do you know if I accidently created two Mike Thomas accounts or is there really another Mike Thomas? (ie does the first Mike Thomas have an email address in the same domain as my email?)

Ok it happened today when I logged into the console. How should I send you the log file?

Keith, I've privately attached the log file to this message

Thanks Mike, we'll review this log and hopefully be able to see what's causing your issue to occur!
Regarding your accounts, it looks like the other account is indeed also on your domain. Would you like me to merge it into your current one?
The log has some useful information, and we have an idea as to why this might be happening. We're going to make a change for 5.1 Beta 6, so I'll let you know as soon as it's available to test out.
Thanks!
No problem! I've merged your accounts, and we'll let you know as soon as the next DisplayFusion beta is available.

It did seem to work a couple times, but today when I logged in it took forever again to finish reconfiguring (ie it showed like 7 bars on the left monitor and it slowly went down to 1 and then the right monitor went to half a bar and then back to a full bar then finally the middle monitor bar turned translucent and it gave me back explorer)

Ok, thanks for trying it out and sending the new log. I'll re-open the ticket and we'll have another look at it.

I'm running the latest Beta right now and while it's better it still does take 25 seconds to become usable each time I log into the console.
Ok, and is that still happening only after having logged in a bunch of times previously? Or does it now do it even on the first login?
