I have multiple different DF Taskbar shortcuts that indirectly launch certain applications and I would like to find some way for those pinned taskbar icons to be combined with the application that's launched indirectly.
Below is an example shortcut to explain this better:

• Taskbar shortcut name:

Start Vegas Pro


• Taskbar shortcut Target:

C:\Users\BDB\Documents\Scripts\Start-Vegas.vbs


• Taskbar shortcut icon:

C:\Users\BDB\Documents\Scripts\Vegas.png

Clicking this taskbar shortcut runs the VBS file above (which kills and re-runs Vegas, it's been buggy and having issues launching for me and this is a bandaid). Once Vegas has finally launched, the taskbar button for the Vegas window does not share a taskbar button with the shortcut that I initially clicked to launch Vegas. This is unsurprising since the shortcut I had clicked to launch Vegas is actually a shortcut to a VB script, not to the Vegas executable.
Now just earlier today, I dicovered the DisplayFusion advanced setting .

So here's what I tried...

• Click

Start Vegas Pro

shortcut to launch Vegas
• Right-click freshly-launched Vegas window's Taskbar icon >

Pin this program to Taskbar


• Right-click newly-pinned Vegas Taskbar shortcut >

Edit this Pinned Item


• Copy contents of

Metro (Universal) App ID

, which are:

{6D809377-6AF0-444B-8957-A3773F02200E}\VEGAS\VEGAS Pro 19.0\vegas190.exe


• Right-click

Start Vegas Pro

shortcut >

Edit this Pinned Item


• Paste above App ID in

Metro (Universal) App ID


• Click OK > Save
• Close Vegas Pro
• Right-click newly-pinned Vegas Taskbar shortcut >

Unpin this program from Taskbar


• Click

Start Vegas Pro

shortcut to launch Vegas

Now what I was hoping for was that by setting the App ID of my existing pinned Taskbar shortcut to the same App ID that's present in a regular Vegas Pro pinned DF Taskbar shortcut, that the taskbar button for Vegas Pro's window would share the same button with the pinned shortcut. But that's not what happened. Instead, the Vegas window just has its own separate taskbar button like normal.

Is it possible for me to achieve what I'm wanting to with the setting? If it's not possible with that setting, is there some other way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? If it's not possible at all, can someone please explain to me what the purpose of that setting is?

Any luck?

Any traction on this issue yet?

Neat. When will work on that next beta begin? And do we have any idea when that next beta is expected to release?

OK, thank you. Please keep me in the loop.

I noticed that a month after we last posted here that DF 11.0 Beta 4 was released. But according to the changelog and according to my testing of that Beta build, it looks like it did not incorporate a fix for this.

Do we have an idea of approximately how many more Beta builds we'll receive before this fix has been implemented?

Is this what I think it is??

Thank you!!
