Im on Win 10 with four monitors.
I know previously this has been a problem but I wanted to make sure it hasnt or has been fixed yet.
When I click a start up Icon on my far right monitor I dont want my monitor on the far left to display what I was expecting to launch on my right monitor. If I could get this figured out it would increase my work flow considerably. Thanks

Sorry, to clarify, are you clicking an icon in the Windows Start menu? Or a desktop or taskbar shortcut?

Is that a bug for you too Keith?

It seems to be working ok for me. Could you send over a debug log?

On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
Restart DisplayFusion
Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
Send us the DisplayFusion.log and DebugInfo.html files (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
Disable debug logging after sending the log

Ahhh, thanks for the video, that was helpful

Only the DisplayFusion taskbars can force an application to open on the same monitor. We don't have control over where the Windows taskbar launches applications. However, you can create a Window Location rule that will open all new windows on whichever monitor the mouse is on. I've attached a screenshot for reference.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for your time! I have tried what you recommend and still no luck. I just noticed there was an update so Ill try again.

If you're still having trouble with this after creating the Window Location rule, could you attach a debug log?

On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
Restart DisplayFusion
Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
