Hello.

I have a problem using Display Fusion and WindowTabs together. On my main monitor the software WindowTabs can group more open windows to one tab normally (pic1). But when I move the same group of open windows to the second monitor (with the second taskbar through display fusion) there are two tabs - the grouped and a extra single tab (pic2). Can you fix this issue that only the grouped tab is visible?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure that we can do anything from our end to add support for this, but we'll definitely check it out when we have some time :)

I've just tested WindowTabs out here, but couldn't reproduce this. For me, it correctly showed the grouped button for the tabs, but no extra one. What mode do you have your DisplayFusion taskbar set to?

Multi-Monitor Taskbar:
1. Shortcuts - Combine with Taskbar Buttons
2. Size - Automatic
3. Position - Right
4. Auto-Hide - Enabled
5. System Tray (Clock and Icons) - Show Clock & Show Icons
6. Start Button - Up
7. 'Show Desktop' Button - Down
8. Button Alignment - Up
9. Button Style - Automatic
10. Group Buttons - Automatic

...and settings in WindowTabs see pic3 below. Hope this helps!

P.S. I have replaced pic2 in my first post. There you can see the grouped symbol of WindowTabs in an extra tab and not combined in the bottom right corner (in one tab) like in pic1.

Ah, I've figured it out (sort of). When I first move the group to the second monitor, it's fine, but if I then drag it a little bit after that, a second button gets added to the DisplayFusion taskbar. I've added this to our list, and we'll be sure to let you know when we're able to get it fixed up.

Thanks!

Ok, we finally had a chance to work on this, and unfortunately it's not something we can fix from our end. WindowTabs creates an invisible second window for the grouping part, and for some reason instead of just hiding the window, it moves this invisible window onto the second monitor. DisplayFusion doesn't have any way to tell if the window is actually there or not, so we can't just remove it from the taskbar. I'd recommend contacting the dev for WindowTabs about this issue. If they need any info from us, just have them email us at support@displayfusion.com :)

Thanks!
