I have a docking station for my laptop with two external monitors connected. Sometimes while connected to the docking station I want to use the laptop display only with the external monitors disabled.
For this I have two monitor profiles (set up a very long time ago probably with DisplayFusion 9):
- 'Laptop docked': Connected to the docking station, but external monitors disabled
- 'Laptop undocked': Disconnected from the docking station
Basically, both profiles use the same display with the same resolution and settings.
This might seem superfluous, but it allows me to have two different settings for the audio devices in the monitor profiles.
Now I cannot work with these two settings anymore. There are two problems:
The 'Monitor Configuration' window tells me "Detected Profile: Laptop Docked".
When I switch to 'Laptop undocked', that profile stays active for a second or so and then DisplayFusion insists on auto-detecting the other profile again.
It is also not possible to make changes and save to a different (or new) profile, if a profile is auto-detected.
As long as the "Detected Profile: Laptop Docked" notification is visible, I cannot use the drop down list which is behind the 'Save Profile...' button. Clicking on that little black down arrow leads immediately to the message "Are you sure you want to overwrite this Monitor Profile? ..."
We have some ideas here for our next beta that should help, we'll keep you posted when we have anything further.
Thanks!
