Although my 'Restore Window Positions From Last Saved' Trigger executes and I can see windows move slightly, it does not properly re-position the windows. As soon as I execute this function manually, it works as scripted. Any reason why this is not working upon my desktop unlocked?

If you disable the Trigger rule and run it manually, does it fail the first time, but succeed the second time?

Manually, it seems to work every time. I tried several iterations of logging out/back in. I then turned the Trigger back on, logged out/back in several times. The Trigger functioned as created the first time, which is rare, and failed several more log in attempts. Each time, I successfully executed the Restore function manually. It's not a time issue as the trigger executes every time, it just doesn't restore the windows.

Ok, could you send over a debug log? I only want to see what happens in the log when it runs from the Trigger, so please don't run it manually before sending the log.

  • On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Reply with the file attached
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

Please see attached log file. I entered the desktop session at 10:35, not certain of seconds. I cleared logfile prior to logging off and back in and did not execute the function script manually.

Thanks! According to the log the Trigger rule didn't fire at all, which is super weird. Could you send me a backup of your settings? (Settings > Options > Export)

After reading this, I realized I had not seen the windows even shift when logging back in. Sure enough, I had disabled the Trigger while resetting the log previously. I have attached a new log, logging in @ 4:43, with the Trigger enabled.

Interestingly, I tried logging off/back on a half dozen more times and the windows were properly set four of the intervals. It seems the resetting of log/disabling/re-enabling the Trigger reset something so it fires properly most of the time now.

Thanks! Was this new log captured when it didn't restore correctly?

Good Q. Let me catch it when it doesn't restore next time.

Attached is the log from a failed restore attempt at approximately 7:40 PM. I verified beforehand that the Trigger function was enabled and that this specific Trigger was enabled.

Thanks! It looks like there are still some "WM_DISPLAYCHANGE" events happening (Window reconfiguring the displays) around the same time the Trigger runs the function. Could you try upping the delay in the Trigger rule to 10000?

That is working much better now, thanks. I thought the movement of the windows was DF, guess it was the system still making adjustments.
