A recent AVG and Avast antivirus update is preventing DisplayFusion 9.9 from launching on some systems. If you're running into this issue, please update to the latest DisplayFusion 10.0 Beta.
I'm using multi-monitor taskbars, and have the very annoying problem that every so often, seemingly arbitrarily, the taskbars on the non-main displays get stuck behind any open application windows (see attached image). I have, so far, not been able to determine what is triggering this behavior, and have found that restarting DF is the only solution. Once I restart, everything runs as expected.
I'm currently using DF 10.0 Beta 16 (but have also had this problem with previous versions) on Windows 7 SP1 7601. Any and all advice is very much appreciated.
Okay strange, I'll play around with this on my end and see if I can reproduce it. Does it only happen with specific applications? Does it only happen on split monitors as well?
Thanks again for the quick response... As far as I have been able to ascertain this behavior happens arbitrarily, and I haven't found a connection to any specific application. As for your second questions, I've never used split monitors, so can't answer that. Once the behavior kicks in, it is the same on all 3 non-main displays (until I restart DF).
When the issue happens, if you restart Windows Explorer via task manager, rather then DisplayFusion, does that fix it up?
Thanks!
Going to revive this thread... Had the same issue happen just now, exited and restarted explorer, and it did not fix the problem. Exited and restarted DF, and all works as expected.
Thanks for sending that over. Could you update to our latest beta, and turn on the "Enable Prompt to Restart Explorer when Issue Detected" advanced setting? We put it in to deal with windows that drop behind the taskbar, I'm curious if it will fix this up as well.
