Hello,

After years of using displayfusion for my multi-monitor setup, I bought a single ultrawide. I was about to say goodbye to displayfusion but noticed the splits and padding option. This is exactly what I needed and it works great for the windows.

However, the taskbar start menu is not behaving. If I click the start button on the left side (1.1) which has the displayfusion taskbar, it opens the menu on the right side (1.2) which has the windows taskbar. Sometimes, it will momentarily open on the left side but then close and reopen on the right side.

Ideally, I would prefer to have the windows taskbar on the left and displayfusion taskbar on the right. That would stop this being an issue. However, unlike before, where I could just switch the monitors around, with a single screen, I cannot do that.

Have you any ideas on how to resolve this (other than revert to just the windows taskbar or put up with the behaviour)

Thank you Keith. I did the advanced setting change and the does now mean the menu opens on the left side. A much more natural position. Not a perfect solution as it means you have to run with the system tray icons on the left split whereas you can turn them off on the displayfusion taskbar. However, that is better than having your start menu opening the wrong side.

Interestingly, before I made the change in advanced setting you gave, I turned off the multi-monitor taskbar option yesterday to have a run through with that. So, this was a single windows taskbar across both splits. This seemed to work correctly until earlier this morning when pressing the start button on the keyboard (rather than mouse clicking) opened the start menu on the right side. Despite there not being a displayfusion taskbar present.

Keith, I just installed Beta 2, restarted it, and enabled the taskbar with split monitors and the DF taskbar appeared on the right side and the windows taskbar on the left.

Pressing start menu on the right side brings the start menu up on the left side momentarily but then moves it to the right. side.

Pressing the up arrow in the notifications windows system tray on the left side works correctly. Pressing it on the right side seems to alternate between it showing on the right side, then left and then right with each repeat click on the right side.

I then removed the 1.1 setting in advanced settings/Taskbar: Windows Taskbar Split Monitor ID. Restarted DF. this reversed the taskbars with DF taskbar on the left and windows taskbar on the right. I got the same behaviour mentioned above but on reverse sides.

If the system tray clicking has a gap (which is going to be natural behaviour in most cases) then it does open on the correct side.
