So among the various issues with the plague that is Electron, is that it's a real headache to setup DisplayFusion triggers for them. For example, I have DF set to move Discord and Teams to specific displays and locations when I hook in to my office docking station. The problem is that if I use the Process Filename trigger, it breaks every time the apps update because they always change their bloody filenames with each one. I can't use the Windows Class because every Electron app shows up as "Chrome_WidgetWin_1". And Window Text doesn't work (at least with these two apps) because the title changes depending on what channel etc. you're in at a given time.
I figure there surely must be a reliable way to handle these types of apps that I'm just not seeing, so I thought I'd ask if people have any strategies for these given how far the Electron plague has spread these days.
Cheers.
You can use an asterik (*) as a wild card to grab the path automatically, like this: *Discord.exe
Hope that helps!
