I am very happy to announce the release of DisplayFusion 3.0.4! This new version has some important bug fixes, along with some exciting new features. Some of the biggest new features are the addition of taskbar thumbnail window previews and the ability to drag/drop files onto the DisplayFusion taskbar items, just like the Windows ones. Here are some more of the new features and fixes:

• Added taskbar thumbnail window previews (hover over taskbar items for a thumbnail window preview)
• Added drag/drop taskbar button sorting (on DisplayFusion taskbars only)
• Taskbars are no longer removed/re-added when closing the Settings window
• Dragging over a DisplayFusion taskbar item now restores that window so you can drag/drop in it
• Added an option to disable the "Do you wish to apply these settings?" wallpaper prompt
• Full Microsoft Excel 2002/2003/2007 taskbar compatibility in all operating systems
• Fixed an issue that caused the taskbar icons to be lower quality in certain situations
• Fixed clicking on a focused taskbar item didn't always minimize it in Windows 7
• Fixed monitor order was sometimes different than Windows and affected window movement hotkeys
• Fixed an issue that caused the wallpaper to be tiled incorrectly when high DPI settings are in use in Vista/Win7

As you can see, there are a number of important changes. You can see the complete list of changes in the DisplayFusion Change Log. There is also a new Portuguese (Portugal) translation available on the DisplayFusion Languages page - thanks Rui Pedro da Silva Gomes da Costa!

I would encourage everyone to update as soon as you can to take advantage of the new functionality.

Raise a glass with me as I celebrate DisplayFusion's 500,000th download! Since being released in August 2007, DisplayFusion has racked up more than a half a million downloads. Unfortunately, I only started tracking downloads in January 2008. Starting from January 2008, DisplayFusion reached 500,000 this afternoon! If I'm not mistaken, I believe a celebration is in order. To commemorate this special event I will be raising DisplayFusion's price to $500,000 per license. Oh wait, that doesn't sound right. How about 50% off instead? Starting right now, until Wednesday at midnight (GMT-5), DisplayFusion will be on sale for only $10 per license! Volume discounts still apply as well. That means you can pickup 2 licenses for only $16, or 5 licenses for just $30 (Canadian Dollars). This sale is only on for 24 hours, so if you've been waiting to pickup DisplayFusion Pro now is your chance!

I am very happy to announce the release of DisplayFusion 3.0.3! This new release fixes over 20 issues, and adds full Windows compatibility. Here are a few of the important changes in this release:

• Significantly better Windows 7 and Windows 2000 support
• Applying the wallpaper settings manually (in the Wallpaper window) now turns off the image freezing
• New HotKey: "Move window to previous monitor" (Ctrl + Win + W)
• New HotKey: "Move window to previous monitor and size proportionally" (Ctrl + Win + E)
• New HotKey: "Move window to previous monitor and maximize" (Ctrl + Win + D)
• Fixed an issue that caused the HotKeys to get reset on reboot with Windows Vista/Windows 7 in certain situations
• Fixed the "Arial does not support style 'regular'" error in the Wallpaper and Settings windows
• Better application compatibility with Outlook 2007, MySQL GUI Tools, Google Chrome, Apple Safari 4 and Delphi applications (TOAD for Oracle, PSpad, FlashFXP... etc)

To see the complete list of changes, just visit the DisplayFusion Change Log. I would encourage everyone to update to this new version as soon as possible to take advantage of all the fixes and added functionality. If you have the auto-update feature enabled in DisplayFusion you will be prompted to upgrade the next time you start-up. Otherwise, just head over to the DisplayFusion page to download this version right now.

I am very happy to announce the release of DisplayFusion 3.0.2. Actually, I released this new version last weekend and forgot to post about it. Sorry everyone! This release is a substantial update to DisplayFusion and includes a number of often-requested features, like Taskbar auto-hiding. So, without further ado lets take a look at what has changed in this version:

• Taskbars now support auto-hiding
• Added a "Taskbar Opacity" option, to make the DisplayFusion Taskbar translucent
• Wallpaper checker/changer is now delayed 30 seconds from application startup, to allow the system to fully start before trying to change anything
• Huge improvement in response time for taskbar item updating (new windows, closed windows, focused windows... etc)
• Better window management compatibility with Google Chrome and Apple Safari 4 (doesn't move browser to the next monitor when middle-clicking a tab at the top of the window)
• Silent installations now work correctly
• Installer would sometimes use English, even if another language was selected

As always, you can see the complete list of changes in the DisplayFusion Change Log. I would expect that everyone that has the auto-update notification enabled has already updated, but for everyone else, I would encourage you to update today!

I would like to send out a huge thanks to Igor Dymov for translating DisplayFusion 3.0.1 into Russian. If you are interested in using DisplayFusion with a Russian interface just head over to the DisplayFusion Languages page and download the Russian language file. For more information on how to install the language file, just look at the "How do I use these language files" section on DisplayFusion Languages page.

I am very happy to announce the release of DisplayFusion 3.0.1. This version fixes a bunch of important bugs, and adds a few small features. I'd like to thank everyone that has reported issues through the DisplayFusion Online Support page. I never would have been able to squash all of these bugs without your help. Here is a summary of some of the bigger changes in this release:

• Added an option: "Rotate wallpaper images automatically using JPEG EXIF information"
• Added a registry key to force a specific taskbar height (see support forum)
• Fixed application compatibility with a bunch of applications (AQT Query Tool, Microsoft Excel, TOAD, Paint.NET... etc)
• Fixed an issue that caused a restored window to be too size for the monitor and the caption bar would be pushed off the top
• Fixed an issue that would cause the DisplayFusion taskbar to appear half-way up the screen when changing resolutions
• Fixed an issue that would sometimes cause a grey bar to appear on the top and left of scaled wallpaper images

If you would like to see the full list of changes you can visit the DisplayFusion Change Log. You may be required to reboot when installing this update, because of the new DisplayFusion hook DLL. Not everyone will need to reboot, but if you are prompted to reboot DisplayFusion won't work properly until you do. I would advise everyone to update to this new version as soon as possible, as there are a number of important fixes in this release.

Thanks everyone, and happy downloading!
