Ok, I have not keep up with the beta for 3.4.1. So not sure what build it started at. But with build 15. You can not see the taskbar on the top on the extra monitors. You only see the time section. It needs to read the custom visual styles for the normal location of the taskbar and use it to draw the taskbar when its not in default (IE, top).

In other words is it possible to get it back to using the default skinning when the Visual Style does not have the top skinned, like before?

Just to confirm, if you move the taskbar to the bottom, it shows up correctly?

Could you post a link to the visual style that you're using?

Thanks!

I had a chance to test this out, the theme actually came with a Prod-Top version too. Are you using your Windows taskbar on the bottom, and the DisplayFusion taskbar on the top?

We've checked this out and unfortunately we can't fix it up

The Prod theme actually does have theme data for the taskbar on all four sides, but for any side except the bottom, it's just using some default Windows theme resources which are nearly transparent. If they were null data we'd be able to detect it, but since there is data there, there isn't anything we can do.

Sorry!
