Background: I use Ctrl-Alt-(number) combinations for specific window arrangements with my display. This is what it looks like (see the attachment).
This worked well until I installed the new Flight Simulator, which I use in windowed mode. I would like the hotkeys to not work when in that game, as there are some in-game functions that also map to those key combinations.
Is there a way to make DisplayFusion ignore either the function or the key combination? I suspect this can be done with compatibility settings, but don't know which to use.
There actually isn't a compatibility option for disabling the key combinations, unfortunately.
However, you may be able to do what you're looking for by creating a couple of Trigger rules. One for when the Flight Simulator process starts, and another for when it ends.
I don't have Flight Simulator here for testing with, but I've attached screenshots of the Trigger rules I setup and tested with Notepad.
You can enable it via the DisplayFusion Settings > Functions tab, right underneath the "Custom Function" button.
Thanks!
Oh yes I see it 😅 thanks that helped.
However, I still have the issue that when I use the key combination Ctrl + F10 for "Toggle Key Combinations", it turns off the key combinations, but it doesn't turn them back on when I use it again! Now I need to go into settings and press apply to re-enable key combinations.
Perhaps it also turns off the key combination for toggling key combinations...? How is that supposed to work?
Yeah when you toggle it, it will also disable the hotkey you are using to toggle. You can use a trigger event like in post #2, or you can add that function as a titlebar instead.
