Hi all,
I'm having issues when playing various games in non-windowed mode with resolutions such as 800x600, 1280x720, etc.
This happens for games such as Counter-strike:Global Offensive & Starcraft2.
1. The alt+tab from the game and to the game a very slow (5+ seconds), while they aren't slow when displayfusion is stopped (just tested).
2. When alt+tab tabbing, it seems that displayfusion keeps crashing and restarting and during that period ot removes/adds the taskbar a couple of times on the second monitor.

Apologies for the delay.. was on vacation
I've reproduced the issue - ~21:32 & 21:35.
File is attached.
It only happens when the game is in fullscreen. Also the alt+tab is quite slow. In windowed mode it's fine, but windowed mode doesn't support resolutions different that the display.

No worries! If you create a rule on the DisplayFusion Settings > Compatibility tab for the game and enable the "Disable multi-monitor taskbar" option in the rule, does that resolve the issue?

No such option.

Ah sorry, I mean the "Disable DisplayFusion taskbars while this application is running" option.

Ok.. so I tested it.. and indeed this solves the issue, but since the game is alt+tabbed most of the time.. it's not really a solution.
On the Settings > Taskbar tab, is the "Allow taskbar reloading while full screen..." option enabled?
Ok, if you disable that (and remove the Compatibility rule), does it make any difference?

Yep, that does seem to have resolved it partially.
When I alt+tab into the game it seems fine.
When I alt+tab out of the game the taskbar stops/crashes and reloads.
Edit: Hmm.. although this doesn't happen constantly.

Is the game set to a different resolution than the desktop?

It is, yes.
It's a non standard resolution -> 1280x720 or 1680x1050, while the monitor/desktop is at 1920x1080.
Ok, that makes sense then. DisplayFusion will reload the taskbar when the resolution changes as it has to remove/re-add the taskbar to update the work area with Windows.
