Hi,

I'm using Windows 10 and the latest DisplayFusion.
I created a Trigger to move Skype(not the Microsoft store version) to specific position on Window Creation, it works fine the first time after application launched.
I tried to modify to move the window every time I open it from the system tray, because the position can change when switching between TV and my monitors.
Tried Window created, Window Focused, Window Restored with Process Filename, with and without Window Text, but none of them work.
How can I do this every time I open the app from the system tray?

Window Focused would be the only other one that I would think should work. Couple things to try:

Try adding a delay on the match conditions (lower-right of the trigger rule window), try something like 250
After restoring from the tray, if you click on a different application, then back on the Skype window, does the trigger fire?

Delay does not help, but when clicking to another window, then back the trigger fired.

Are you currently on DisplayFusion 9.4.3? If so, could you try updating to this beta and let me know if that makes any difference at all?

Yes, I'm using that version and the beta works the same way.

Ok, I was hoping that a change we made to one of the Trigger Events in the beta would make a difference here but looks like not. There might not be anything you can do here. It seems that Skype isn't generating a "Window Focused" message when it restores from the tray
