Recently I replaced my secondary monitor which was a 24" 1080p monitor with a 32" 1440p monitor. My main monitor is also 1440p.

On the multi monitor taskbar, the clock used to display correctly, but when I moved to the larger monitor it now displays like is shown in the snip I have attached. I've tried hiding and reshowing, moving it to top, left, and right side, and also making the taskbar bigger and nothing has fixed it.

Thoughts?

I'm on Windows 10 1809 but it was doing it on 1803 as well.

Thanks! It looks like you have the Taskbar Clock Size options set in the DisplayFusion Settings > Advanced Settings window. Could you try clearing those, then restart DisplayFusion?

Can I jump in here? I cannot see the protected snip from the OP. So I don't know if it's the same.

But, my clock/data on the 2nd monitor Taskbar is not looking correctly.
I do not have any custom settings in my Advanced Settings for the clock.

Attached are a screenshot, and the debuginfo from troubleshooting tab.

Thanks Keith.

@Brenku: That looks like it could be an issue with Windows reporting the wrong scaling level to DisplayFusion. If you logout of Windows and back in, does that make any difference?

It seems to be persistent across reboots. I have a laptop in this case though. It generally boots to my main screen, and then I Enable the dual-monitor profile to blank my laptop display and appear on my two monitors instead.

It's not a huge issue, and I guess I can adjust it via those settings in advanced. I just thought maybe you had some quick fix. You're pretty legendary on these forums. :P

Could you attach a copy of your troubleshooting info when the second monitor is enabled?

This issue still persists with DisplayFusion 9.8 on Windows 10 Home (Version 20H2). The primary display is on a laptop (clock/date display fine), and the 2 external monitors, clock/date is cutoff.

Hi Nicholas,

Are you using any custom scaling settings on your monitors?

Thanks!

Display #2 & #3 are both 3840x1600 (Recommended), size of text 100% (Recommended), no custom scaling.

I have a similar issue. Affects several menus, like the clock and the speaker settings. I also use no custom scaling, main display is 1440P and the problematic display is 4k (with "change the size of text, apps, and other items" set to 150%.

I also met the same issue on DisplayFusion 10.0 Pro beta 3 on Windows 10. I don't have any custom setting on the clcok size. I also don't have any custom scaling. My external monitor 1 is 2560 * 1440, monitor 2 is 1440 * 2560 (portrait). My clock menu is being cutoff. How could we resolve this?

I am also having trouble with the clock size on my secondary monitor-it remains too small.Attached is a snip showing the clock in the systray of each monitor. Also attached is the debug log.

@Terry34245: Your troubleshooting info shows the primary monitor is 150% and the other monitors are 100%, so that fits with the open ticket we have for this issue.

@Stefan: Looks like both of your monitors are the same scaling level, so that's really strange! If you do a logout of Windows (not a reboot) and log back in, is the clock text still the wrong size?

Hi yes, If I switch the primary monitor to 100% I can see the external monitors clock back to normal. But 100% display size is too small and Windows recommend me to set default 150%. So is there any way to adjust the external monitors clock size to normal when I am using 150% display size? Thanks!

@Terry34245: You should be able to keep your custom scaling levels, but when you change them, you need to do a logout/login to Windows for it to fully take effect. Is the clock size correct if you do a logout/login (not a restart)?

Yep, that one's definitely not fixed by logout/login. It's technically a Windows issue, Windows doesn't like that we move the calendar, but if we find a way to work around it in DF, we will definitely let you know.

Thanks!

Hi Keith, I checked out latest 10.1.2 version and the issue is still not fixed. Do we have plan to get it resolved in the future release? Thanks a lot.

It's still open on our list but as of yet there's no fix for it. It's an issue with how Windows is re-scaling the popup when it gets moved to another monitor that we don't have control over :(

Seeing as how difficult it is to fix the scaling, is it possible to have an option to open the window on the main monitor instead of the monitor with the displayfusion taskbar?

I was having the problem of the year being truncated with 20... but only on my 3 additional displays. Main display text was correctly showing a 4 digit year.
(Windows 10 Pro) I assume path below is the same for nearly all Windows Versions.
It is more of a work around than a fix. If you don'f care about the 4 digit year, go to:
Control Panel --> Change Date and Time --> Change Calendar Settings --> Change Short Date to MM/dd/yy.
This make the year 2 digits, rather than 4 and shows the date correctly on my 3 extra monitors.

@Justin15025 We've released a new beta that adds an advanced setting called "Don't move taskbar popup" that should do this for you. You can grab it here: https://www.displayfusion.com/Download/Beta/

just testing it now, clicking the Calendar is working, but is it possible to do the same when pressing the other taskbar icons (internet and sound)? The window popups aren't correct for them either

Strange, I tested it here and it doesn't move the network icon. Can you send me a debug log? Here are the steps:

  • On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Reply with the file attached
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

Here is my log file. I cleared the log before testing, so no timestamp needed.

I opened the Calendar button first (works), then Sound button (does not work), then the Internet button (does not work)
