Is there a way to have the taskbar never stay on top?
I run a few "Windowed/Fullscreen" games. They are Maximized, Borderless Windows.

Things are great for the usual Fullscreen things (like videos) but this is just a fringe case I was wondering if someone knew how to work with.

It would happen to be the Windows taskbar.

Here's what happens.

I open Steam Big Picture. It switches my primary and secondary displays.
When that happens, the task bars switch too.

So the game runs on the big screen, which is now the primary display, which now has the Windows Task bar.

In any case, it's not a big deal. I can always unlock the taskbar and drag it somewhere else.

EDIT:
By the way, I just wanted to mention that this time around, DF works very well with Big Picture. Before, the task bars would get all screwy. Now, it properly adjusts and compensates and whatever else it needs to do.
So, over all, it's still doing for me what Windows out of the box cannot.

It's okay. Like I said, now when I move the Windows Taskbar around, the DF taskbar properly goes where it should.
Not to mention that the DF taskbar also stays behind everything I put over it (like videos and game windows) as it properly should.

Last time I used DF and Big Picture, the Taskbars would bunch up on the same screen and go screwy. I'm really glad you guys fixed that.

Sorry to drudge up an old topic, but I can't find a solution anywhere. I'd like the secondary taskbar to not cut off a maximized window on my second screen. I don't want it to autohide, I want the taskbar there all the time. Essentially, I want the screen to be maximized, but not full screen, so the 2nd taskbar doesn't cut off the bottom of my maximized window. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I'm on the Steam key, but updated to 6.0.0 Beta 2.

Thanks!

That's exactly my issue. I guess others were having this issue on the main taskbar, but this is happening on the secondary. I'd like the taskbar to always be underneath a maximized or full screen window. Am I the only one?

Maybe an uninstall/reinstall is in order here. I originally had a beta version, then installed the Steam Version, then updated so maybe something got lost in translation?

I attached the file here to look at.

You know, it's apparently only with VLC and programs that are fullscreen. Maybe it's not even a problem with DF. Is there a setting for maximized programs to specifically take over the full screen? I know that sounds silly, but it sounds like I need a maximized setting, not full screen.

That is what I'd like. I realize that it seems to be a VLC limitation, not DF. I still love DF, no worries!

That would be sweet. It's Monitor 2 (Acer AL2216W) running at 1680 x 1050

I realize this topic is 2 years old, but I am suddenly experiencing a problem on my seccondary screens with DF taskbar. When maximizing my youtube videos, they end up behind the taskbar. This means I cant use the playback buttons. Even when I right click it, the DF menu that shows up ends up behind the taskbar.

I've added troubleshooting file, and a picture of the right click menu behind the taskbar.

Thanks for your reply crisdavid.
When I right click, its initially over for half a second, and then its like DisplayFusion performs an update, and puts the taskbar on top. It doesn't help to continuously right-click. This has been going on for a long time now, and I've had to resort to turning DF taskbar off, when using full-screen applications, like Plex, as I can't get the taskbar to hide behind it.

I did check "Show taskbar in front of full-screen application when they loose focus". I have tried with this option on and off. But this doesn't just happen when the application looses focus, it happens every time, immediately. No matter how many times I click outside the application, and then inside the application, to give it focus again, the taskbar wants to sit on top.

It does suddenly start working properly for a while, perhaps after some days, and then suddenly, the issue comes back.

I really should have done some more thinking before posting my original post, and explained all the things I've tried, but yes, this setting is usually off, but I tried turning it on as well, without any change.

I use Opera for my youtube, but when I use Plex, its the Plex Media Player.
My Opera is at version 40.0.2308.3

Okay, so its out of beta, and for today, its working fine again. RIght click no longer puts the menu behind the bar, and my windows go propper full screen. Seems like it might have been an issue in beta 11 of version 8.0
