Hi !

I made a little dummy program with 7z SFX Packager that I use to turn leds off.
In details, each time screensaver starts the task opens the exe, DF trigger toggle the exe to always on top then iCue use the "leds off" profile attached to this exe. When screensaver stops, dummy program is killed and iCue switches to desktop profile.

It worked like a charm for long time, but recently this routine is broken, got something that put the exe to background after a while, turning on leds and lighting my sleeping room lovely when I try to sleep :D

Fact is I can't find what's causing the toggle on top to stop working, my monitors are off when it happens and eventlog has nothing interesting so...
Pressing win key twice closes the screensaver and everything work again 5min later when screensaver goes back, until it's broken again :'(

I joined a screencap of my settings.

If you have an idea why the on top toggle breaks, how to recover wanted behavior after the breaking or even another exe that would really stay on top to keep the turned off leds profile in iCue it would be great.

Note: asking Corsair to add a toggle off leds on idle or alike is useless, I already asked multiple times over years and they don't want to change iCue even if it's a setting you can find, at least, by Razer or Logitech, so asking Corsair is a no go.

Thanks for your help !
Regards.

Hi David,

The toggle just sets the Window Style, there isn't much to it. Something from that program might be overriding the style. If you test it out on a different program and leave it overnight, does it work?

Hey Owen,
first must admit that i figured out i may use the wrong action, setting always on top don't seem to force the window to be focused and seen by iCue.
Hence i may have been lucky it worked until now.
I set another exe that can run standalone and set DF to prevent window deactivation, will see if it works tonight. (is there a way to use this fucntion silently ?)
Then i'll modify the post title in accordance.
Thank you !

Hi !
Tested last two night with other exe but nothing good.
Joined my new trigger, will test it tonight hope it'll work.

Is there a way to script in DF something like:
while exe is running, switch to its window, wait 60000ms, do it again.
?

Regards

Try this script out, it will look for that idle app every 60 seconds and focus it if it's found. You can import the script via the DisplayFusion Settings > Functions > Scripted Function > Import Scripted Function.

OK, just tested the script and it works perfectly, thank you very much !
Edit: well it works if i launch the exe by myself but not when launched by 4803 event, issue is not from DF.
Anyway thanks for you help 👍
