Switching desktops Shows Start Menu - Taskbar Auto-hide Enabled #148

Open recifx opened 6 years ago

recifx commented 6 years ago

I encountered some unusual behavior while switching desktops using the Win-Ctrl-# keypad key sequence. Usually the key sequence makes the taskbar visible, and has to be repeated for the desktop switch to occur.

I am using it with Windows 10. I wanted to check if anyone else has observed this behavior. In any case, this software works very well for my purposes.

Thanks for the feedback.

It sounds like you are auto-hiding the taskbar...is that correct?

recifx commented 6 years ago

Yes, I have auto-hiding for the taskbar set.

Thanks for the program. It has the feel of the window managers in linux.

I have confirmed this issue and I'm working on a fix. In the process of this you have given me the idea to implement a hotkey action to toggle auto-hide Taskbar. That part is done and I'm back to working on the bug.

Thanks. I would like to make a contribution as this software is quite useful for me. Are you planning on launching a licensing option or is there an alternative option?

Thanks for the feedback. I am glad you like it. It is one of the most used programs on my PC...I love it too.

I have launched this as a paid application. You can purchase from the "Account" tab on the settings window.

Every computer gets a 10 day trial. After that, you must purchase in order to continue using.

I'm not sure what's causing this, but I think a solution could be that I turn auto-hide off, switch, and finally turn the auto-hide back on. I'm going to test this out to see what it's like.

Is it just my computer or does auto-hide stop working after awhile? When I activate auto-hide some windows act as if the Taskbar is hidden, but it is not hidden. It works again after a restart. This happened once before. Since I don't use very often two times is kind of a lot. Anyway, I'm trying to get back to this bug, but now I have to wait until I restart my PC again.
