Hello Jon,

Thank you for your great software. I would just like to report a small issue that I am facing while trying to minimize and maximize windows from clicking on the application in the taskbar. It seems when you minimize a window and then quickly try to maximize it again (and vice versa), it does not register. I think you can see what I mean by trying to rapidly click on a application on the native windows 7 taskbar and then on yours.

I have tried enabling/disabling windows 7 max/min animations, tweaking taskbar settings and advanced settings in DF with no success.

I did a search on the forums and I came across a post that had the same problem as me since DF 3.0.6 (http://www.binaryfortress.com/Forum/index.php?topic=1104.msg4507#msg4507) which was never solved, so I was wondering if this is a known problem and if there is anyway around it. I also tried Ultramon and it appears that it does not suffer from the same problem. However, I have been using your program for quite a while now and I much prefer yours over Ultramon, so I am hoping you can help me out.

Thanks.

I can confirm this and it bugs me also. Need to wait a half second before clicking again, which is too slow. :-(

Hi Jon,

Just wondering if there has been any progress made regarding this issue? It still persists on the latest v3.3.0 of DisplayFusion.

Furthermore, I would like to add to this matter about an issue when sometimes you click a taskbar window button, it does not respond to either minimize/maximize even when you give it enough time. You can click it however many times you want and it won't respond. You would need to move the mouse pointer to a different area of the taskbar window button for it to respond again. This has been bugging me for quite some time now, and was hoping there would come a fix since I last posted.

I'm experiencing this as well on my secondary monitor.

A few behaviours I've noticed:

- Clicking the icon to minimize or maximize a window will sometimes to nothing
- Right-clicking the icon and selecting minimize/restore/maximize will trigger the correct behaviour
- When I run into this problem, my icons on the secondary toolbar will reorder. I haven't observed a pattern in how it reorders them.
- If I am running a fullscreen application on my main monitor (Remote Desktop), any icons that should appear on my secondary taskbar won't appear until I leave the fullscreen application (minimize or change focus to the second monitor). Similarly, any taskbar notifications (icon flashing) won't trigger until I leave the fullscreen app. I'm not entirely sure if this is a DisplayFusion taskbar issue or a Windows issue. The DF problem may just be an excessive (2 seconds?) delay before the icons appear after they 'ought to'.

I'll adjust the delay in Beta 1 (coming this week) which should help with this. Thanks! :)
