Hello all. I have a small problem. I've used DisplayFusion for years with the same profile and no worries. I have a 32:9 monitor divided in a 16:9 central part and two smaller parts on each side. Recently, I can't say exactly when it started, I noticed a problem with Firefox only: it doesn't maximize to the division size (any of them) but to the whole monitor size. However, when I click on the buttons to make it move from one division to the next, it works as intended.
What version of Firefox are you running? You can find it in the Help > About Firefox section

v111.0.1 (64bits), the latest with auto update activated.

Thanks for sending that over, everything looks good there. Could you also send over a video of the issue happening?

I don't know how to record videos of the desktop, so I took two screenshots. The only difference between the two is a click on the maximize button of Firefox. I also have run it in repair mode so all addons are off. Any of my other applications maximizes to the size of the central division, as expected.

Just so you know, I installed and tested an older version of Firefox, version 106 from october 2022, and it has the same problem. I used that version at that time with DisplayFusion (I don't remember which beta version it was then) and the same setup/profile and all worked well then.
Interesting, if you roll back to v9.9 of DisplayFusion, does the issue persist?

No, as expected, version 9.9 works as intended with Firefox.

Okay, I've done some more tests. Beta 18 works, beta 19 makes Firefox (older version or latest) bug/freeze, beta 20 and later ones do not work (but no more bugs like beta 19).
I've joined a screenshot of my monitor profile if it can help, but I have others and any type of division causes the same problem.

You mentioned you have it running in repair mode, if you disable that does it maximize fine?

No, I tried first in normal mode, then in repair mode to check if the problem might have been related to the use of addons in Firefox, but both configurations had the same result.
I think I know what's going on here, and we should have it fixed up in our next beta. We'll let you know once it's released to test out.
Thanks!

Thanks a lot to you and the team for your time and your help. I'll wait and use beta 18 for the moment.
