Working with DisplayFusion Monitor Profiles

March 5, 2014

DisplayFusion Monitor Profiles store your various monitor configurations for easy transition. This is ideal for laptop users who may have different monitor setups at home, work, etc.

Create a Monitor Profile

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Monitor Configuration" (also accessible via the Options tab in Settings).
Configure your monitors and click the "Apply" button to test your settings.
Click the "Save Profile" button and choose "New Profile."
Enter a name for the Profile and click OK.

Modify a Monitor Profile

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Monitor Configuration" (also accessible via the Options tab in Settings).
Configure your monitors and click the "Apply" button to test your settings.
Click the "Save Profile" button, then select the Monitor Profile that you want to overwrite.
Click Yes on the confirmation prompt.

Rename a Monitor Profile

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Monitor Configuration" (also accessible via the Options tab in Settings).
Click the "Manage Monitor Profiles" button.

Select the Monitor Profile you'd like to rename and click the "Rename" button.
Enter a new name for the Monitor Profile and click OK.

Delete a Monitor Profile

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Monitor Configuration" (also accessible via the Options tab in Settings).

Click the "Manage Monitor Profiles" button.
Select the Monitor Profile you'd like to rename and click the "Delete" button.
Click Yes on the confirmation prompt.

Assign a Key Combination to a Monitor Profile

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Monitor Configuration" (also accessible via the Options tab in Settings).
Click the "Manage Monitor Profiles" button.

Select the Monitor Profile to which you'd like to assign a key combination.
Click the "Key Combination" button and choose "Set Key Combination."

Add a TitleBar Button for a Monitor Profile

You can add a button in Windows title bars to quickly load a Monitor Profile without needing to access a DisplayFusion menu.

Open the DisplayFusion Settings window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Settings."

Click the "Functions" tab and ensure the "Enable TitleBar Buttons" checkbox is enabled.
Scroll down in the Functions list and select your Monitor Profile from the "Monitor Configuration" section.
Click "Add TitleBar Button."
Select the TitleBar Button Image Set, the TitleBar Button Image, and click OK.
Click Apply.

Auto-Loading Wallpaper and Desktop Icon Profiles

DisplayFusion can be configured to automatically load a Wallpaper Profile or Desktop Icon Profile when a specific Monitor Profile is loaded or detected. This is especially helpful if Windows moves your Desktop Icons around on restarts.

As soon as DisplayFusion starts up and detects your previously saved Monitor Profile, it will automatically load the associated Wallpaper and Desktop Icon Profiles without intervention.

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Monitor Configuration" (also accessible via the Options tab in Settings).
Click the "Manage Monitor Profiles" button.
Select the Monitor Profile to which you'd like to assign a Wallpaper or Desktop Icon Profile.

Click the "Wallpaper Profile" or "Desktop Icon Profile" button, and choose the appropriate Wallpaper or Desktop Icon Profile.

Loading Monitor Profiles via Command Prompt

If you need to load a Monitor Profile via the command line, you can use displayfusioncommand.exe (located in the directory where DisplayFusion is installed).

The command is as follows:

displayfusioncommand.exe -monitorloadprofile "profile name"

Loading a Monitor Profile on Startup

If you'd like to load a Monitor Profile automatically on startup, you can create a shortcut in your startup folder that will run the command in the previous section.

For the full set of instructions, see Loading a Monitor Profile on Startup.

Advanced Settings

There are a few Monitor Configuration related settings in the DisplayFusion Settings > Advanced Settings window. The most useful one is the option to disable the confirmation prompt when changing monitor settings. If you switch Monitor Profiles often, you may wish to disable this prompt to make the process easier.

Note: If for some reason your monitors are unusable after a settings change, DisplayFusion won't be able to revert back to the original settings if the confirmation prompt is disabled. You'd likely need to reboot your machine to make the displays usable again.

Open the DisplayFusion Settings window by right-clicking the DisplayFusion tray icon and clicking "Settings."
Click the Advanced Settings button.

Search for and double-click "Don't Show Confirmation Prompt" Setting.
Select "Confirmation prompts are not shown" and click OK.

Customizing the DisplayFusion Taskbar

February 12, 2014

By default, the DisplayFusion taskbar will match the behaviour of the Windows taskbar, but the DisplayFusion taskbar has a wealth of customization options. This document covers some of those options and where to configure them.

Global Taskbar Settings

Some settings affect all DisplayFusion taskbars. These global taskbar settings are in the Taskbar tab of DisplayFusion's Settings.

Right-click the DisplayFusion icon and click "Settings."
Click the Taskbar tab.

Taskbar Tab

This area allows you to:

Enable Multi-Monitor Taskbars
Enable Jump Lists
Enable focus, full screen, and transparency options
Set Taskbar Modes (windows display options)
Set the Taskbar Button Middle-Click Behaviour
Select the Windows Preview Style
Set Taskbar Opacity

Taskbar Shortcuts

The DisplayFusion taskbar allows you to add different types of shortcuts to the taskbar. You can add regular application shortcuts, like the Windows taskbar, but you can also add shortcuts to files, folders, and websites.

Taskbar Shortcuts are in the Taskbar tab of DisplayFusion's Settings.

Right-click the DisplayFusion icon and click "Settings."

Click the Taskbar tab.
Click the Taskbar Shortcuts button.

From here you can add all of the shortcut types (Application, File, Folder, Website), and also edit, rename, re-arrange, and specify custom icons for the shortcuts.

Applications, Folders, and Websites shortcuts start on the same monitor as the taskbar by default.

You can disable this action by disabling the "Force [shortcut] to open/start on same monitor as Taskbar" checkbox. On Applications you also have Administrator and Metro options as well as the ability to use Command Line Arguments.

Application shortcuts can also be added by right-clicking a button on the DisplayFusion taskbar and choosing "Pin this program to Taskbar."

Individual Taskbar Settings

Each taskbar element (Start button, shortcuts, application buttons, system tray, clock, and show desktop button) can be moved to either side of the taskbar, or disabled completely.

Right-click a blank space on any DisplayFusion-controlled Taskbar and select "Multi-Monitor Taskbar" to bring up the submenu options.

Multi-Monitor Taskbar Menu

This menu allows you to:

Control the Size and Position of the taskbar
Set the Auto-Hide option
Set the visibility and location of the System Tray Clock, System Tray Icons, Start Button, Show Desktop Button and your Shortcuts. There is also a link to Edit Shortcuts.
Choose the Alignment, Style, and Grouping of Buttons

Examples

Below are some examples of configured Taskbars.

Example 1 - Left Position, Start Button Disabled

Left Position, Disabled Start Button

Shortcuts Left, Start Button Disabled, Button Alignment Middle
