So I have the "Show taskbar in front of full screen applications when they lose focus" option checked and this feature works on my other monitors but for my primary monitor I seem to just have a normal taskbar without the focus option. Does DisplayFusion not control the primary taskbar or is this a bug? Whenever I want to switch programs while using a game/movie/program that uses fullscreen, I click my second monitor's desktop to lose focus on my game/movie/program to bring up my primary monitor's taskbar and switch from there. I appreciate any help.

DisplayFusion doesn't have control over the Windows taskbar on the Primary monitor, no. But, it's possible that something else DisplayFusion is doing could be causing this issue. If you exit DisplayFusion, does the Windows taskbar come to the front when your game loses focus?

I went ahead and closed DisplayFusion and ran a game (World of Warcraft) and tried switching focus but it still doesn't bring my taskbar to the front. I tried putting the game in Fullscreen and Windowed Fullscreen and still nothing. I also went ahead and put on a YouTube video just to make sure it wasn't only happening to video games and it still wouldn't show my taskbar no matter which monitor's desktop/program I focused on.

Strange! If you exit DisplayFusion, then launch the full screen game, does the taskbar come to the front when you change focus?

As I said in my previous post it does not. I've uninstalled DisplayFusion to check to see if it actually was the problem, but it turns out that my main taskbar still isn't showing up. This leads me to believe that it's a problem with Windows 10.

I had another question I was hoping I could get some help with, though. Is there a way to lock my cursor to a specific set of monitors? More so keybind this function so I can turn it on/off when I need to. The reason for this is so I can stop accidentally moving windows to my top monitor (I have 4 monitors. 3 side by side on the bottom and 1 on top of my middle monitor) when I actually would like it to be on my main (middle) monitor. I'd want to make it where I could keep my cursor on ONLY the 3 bottom monitors when the lock function is active. When it's not active, I'd be able to move my cursor to the top monitor as I please. Hopefully this feature actually exists in DisplayFusion!

Ah ok, sorry, must have missed that!

It's possible to lock the mouse to a specific monitor, but not to lock it out of a specific monitor. We do have that on our feature request list though, so I'll add your vote :)

Thanks!
