When using dexpot (which support multi monitor in version 1.6 beta), display fusion works only on one desktop. That would be great if it could work on all monitors!

No, I do everything like you. But I use dexcube, maybe that's the difference?

Here is the screenshot: everything is on default settings.

Now, I use a custom theme (Placebo), but I've tried with the default theme, and nothing changes...

Yep

But now you mention it, I use a modified version (with RtWinCustomize, a tools that allows me to remove some components) of windows 7 x64. However, I mainly remove things like speech recognition, nothing very important...

Hi!
I've just send you the mail you requested. Unluckily, i discovered (2min after sending the mail), that it's now working (with dexgrid instead of dexcube)

I'll try to get the bug again and send you the configuration files if I'm able to reproduce the problem

I am having thjis same problem after I upgraded to DisplayFusion V4. I have tried turning on/off the various Dexpot settings/controls, but the multi-monitor taskbar only appears on the first/main desktop.

I can confirm this. It worked fine in the previous version, but broke after the upgrade. Even though the taskbar didn't display on the other desktops, the space was still reserved and the full size windows did not take up that space.

I was able to work around it by using the Dexpot "Copy Window" hotkey to copy both the taskbar windows and the start menu buttons individually to the other desktops.

To be honest, I am not quite sure what exactly Derek was suggesting we do. I tried using the Copy Window hotkey on the Start menu, but nothing happened. Copying the individual windows works (the windows are copied), but still no toolbar. I suspect I am missing the approach that Derek is suggesting! A little more detail would help me out...

I did notice that expanding a window to full-screen leaves the space for the toolbar - as Derek pointed out.

1) I changed "Dexpot Settings -> Controls -> Hotkeys -> Copy Window -> to all" to "Windows Key + `"
2) I go to the desktop that has all the taskbars displayed.
3) I click on one of the displayfusion taskbars (not the main windows taskbar) and press "Windows Key + `"
4) Repeat step 3 for each one of the displayfusion task bars.
5) I click on one of the start menu icons on one of the displayfusion taskbars and press "Windows Key + `". I do have an issue where I click on the start menu icon and it does not display the start menu. After clicking a few times, it works. You have to press the hotkey when the start menu is NOT displayed.
6) Repeat step 5 for each one of the displayfusion task bars.

Derek: Great explanation - thanks! I tried that and it worked for me.

A bit more automated solution would be to create a rule for DisplayFusion in Dexpot.

1. Dexpot -> Main Menu -> Desktop Rules
2. Click the "Assistant" button
3. Name the Rule something like "DisplayFusion"
4. Click "Next
5. In the "Condition 1" section, use the application selector to select the DisplayFusion toolbar
5.1. Condition should say Executable is DisplayFusion.exe
6. Click "Next"
7. Select "Copy" in the "Action 1" dropdown menu
7.1. Values should be Copy all desktops
8. Click "Next"
9. Click "Done"
10. Click "Apply"
11. Click "Apply Rules"
12. Click "Ok"
13. Enjoy DisplayFusion on all Dexpot desktops!

Hope that helps!

Creating the Dexpot rule for DisplayFusion worked like a champ! Your explanation was perfect - thanks!

Glad I could help!
