Hello,

Here are some bugs I've found with the new november release. I haven't found someone talking about that yet (my english isn't the best so maybe someone talked already about it but I didn't understand, if so, sorry for duplicate).

Usage scenario: Laptop with 2 screens. Left display is 1680x1050, middle is built-in screen at 1920x1080 and right display is 1920x1080. External display are connected through dvi and display port => dvi connecter to docking station.

1) When on the lock screen (built-in screen is principal), the lockscreen show on the main screen, but the taskbar from DF display on all other "blank" screen. You can mouse-over on the icon in the taskbar and see the preview, even click on them (but it doesn't register).

2) With multiple-taskbar, sometime when maximizing an app, the app go through the taskbar, behind, as if "always on top" wasn't set on the taskbar.

3) When doing a shortcut like winkey+left or winkey+right, only the app from the mainscreen are showed,

Thank you

I would like to add this bug:

I was running 7.3 and thought I should test out the 8.0 beta but no sigar.
Basically I can't run DisplayFusion at the moment.

@Nodiaque: This is a Windows bug that we've tried to work around, but haven't had much luck. It's crazy that any window could ever be shown over the lock screen, as you could imagine the security risk of an application overlaying a fake password prompt or something like that :)

The next time a program maximizes behind the taskbar, could you grab a copy of the info from the Settings > Troubleshooting tab and attach it here?

The Win + Left/Right thing is a known issue related to Windows not registering applications in Task View if they're not on the Windows taskbar (i.e. when they've been moved to a DisplayFusion taskbar). We haven't found a solution to this yet, but a potential workaround is to set the Taskbar Mode (Settings > Taskbar) to "Windows taskbar shows all windows, DisplayFusion shows relevant."

@Sc0tTyXL: I haven't come across that issue before. Is that first screenshot of the empty taskbar a screenshot of the Windows taskbar, or the DisplayFusion taskbar?

Hi Keith,

This is the Windows Taskbar, I don't use DF's option for additional taskbars.

@Sc0tTyXL: Interesting! I can't reproduce that behaviour here. I noticed you have a custom toolbar next to the Start menu. If you disable that toolbar does it make any difference?

Hi Keith,

Doesn't seem to do the trick, what I notice is that when I press the ^ icon in the notification area it starts to display the task bar items, sorta..

BTW I have the same issue on my laptop.

Wow, that's weird! Could you attach a copy of your troubleshooting info?
  • Open the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Click the "Copy to Clipboard" button
  • Paste the text into a text file (please don't paste the text directly into your reply, the formatting gets garbled and makes it difficult to parse)
  • Reply with the file attached

I just realized I should have opened another thread, I completely took it over hehe :laugh:

I attached the file.

BTW, I found out that it might be a combination with another tool I use: http://rammichael.com/7-taskbar-tweaker
Exiting this application resolves the issue as well so there might be something going wrong with this combination and that might be the reason why nobody else has this issue.

Ah, that definitely could be. Could you send me a screenshot of your 7+ Taskbar Tweaker settings so that I can test it out here?

Thanks! On my test system, which has a fresh install of Windows 10 and no DisplayFusion install, as soon as I enable the "Hide the Start button" option, the taskbar buttons all disappear on both taskbars. If you disable that option in 7TT on your system, do the buttons come back?

Hi Kieth,

I received an update for 7TT and it works fine now, you can close the call.

Sorry for the time you wasted on this, I thought DF was the culprit because I exited that application first.

Thanks for all the help!
