DisplayFusion v1.4.2 Released

November 11, 2007

I am very happy to announce the latest release of DisplayFusion! This new version fixes a number of very important issues, including images appearing on the wrong monitors. With help from Keith and Erik Lammers I was able to trace the problem to Active Desktop. I was unaware that selecting the option "Hide Desktop Icons" enables Active Desktop, which causes the wallpaper offsets to change and mess everything up. Well, with this new version all of this is now fixed and working like a champ. Here is a quick rundown on some of the changes in this version:

  • Fixed wallpaper getting applied in reverse order when Active Desktop is enabled
  • The error "DisplayFusion is already running" doesn't happen anymore when using multiple sessions
  • Bolded the default system tray menu item, "Desktop Wallpaper"
  • Increased the proxy settings fields to 1000 characters

Some of these changes and fixes were reported many, many times, especially the wallpaper appearing on the wrong monitor. The proxy characters issue was an oversight on my part and is now corrected, so anyone with long server names or usernames make sure to grab this update.

You can download the latest version on the DisplayFusion page, which I would advise everyone to do. As always, if you have any issues please visit the Online Support page and I'll do my best to help you out. Thanks again to everyone who submitted feedback and to everyone who helped to test this new version.

Thanks!

DisplayFusion: Still Ticking

October 16, 2007

3 weeks ago I announced that DisplayFusion had passed 10,000 downloads. Well, in less than 3 weeks it has added on another 10,000 downloads to pass a total of 20,000 downloads in just 7 weeks since it's release at the end of August.

It's cool to see something that started out as a pet project blossom into my most popular application. What started out as a great way to learn part of the Win32 API has turned into something useful. A couple of weeks ago Lifehacker ran a "System Tray Show and Tell" article, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that DisplayFusion appeared in more than a few of the screenshots.

Thanks everyone!

DisplayFusion Quick Fix Version Released (v1.4.1)

September 29, 2007

I have released a quick fix version of DisplayFusion to clear up a few small issues. Here are the biggest changes:

  • Re-applying wallpaper is now smarter, to allow for people that frequently go from 2 monitors to 1
  • "Move windows to next monitor and size proportionally" HotKey is now working again

As always, you can find the complete list of changes in the DisplayFusion Change Log. To download this new version just head over to the DisplayFusion page.

DisplayFusion Party Time: BYOB

September 24, 2007

That's right, let's party! You provide the beer, I'll provide the party. Yesterday DisplayFusion passed 10,000 downloads, less than 1 month since it's release in late August. Hurray! Thanks to everyone who helped with testing, and to everyone who has submitted feedback. You've all helped shape DisplayFusion into what it is today.

On that happy note, I'm pleased to announce the latest version, 1.4. This new version fixes some important bugs that have popped up and adds some new features. Here is an abbreviated list of list of changes:

  • Now stores the last used wallpaper folder, for easier access
  • Added option to not prompt when the wallpaper changes and just fix it automatically
  • Added option to disable the HotKeys
  • Fixed a rounding error that caused windows to move up/left 1 pixel each time they are moved between monitors
  • Corrected an issue where some windows wouldn't drag if you tried to drag them from the very top while they are maximized

To download this new version head over to the DisplayFusion page. To view the complete list of changes check out the Change Log.

Thanks everyone!

DisplayFusion v1.3 Released

September 17, 2007

I have built and released the latest version of DisplayFusion, version 1.3. This updated release contains a few quick fixes, and adds some extra functionality:

  • Added: New hotkey to centre the window and size it to 100% (basically maximized without actually maximizing it)
  • Added: Option to watch if any other programs (or computer policies) change your wallpaper, then prompt you to restore it
  • Added: Option to search Flickr images by Group name/description as well, not just by a Person's name
  • Changed: Moved the folder that web images get saved to from AppData to the "My Pictures" folder for easier access
  • Changed: Changed the default filenames of web images from random IDs to the image's title for easier access

For the complete list change of changes take a look at the Change Log.

DisplayFusion v1.2.1 Released

September 11, 2007

I have released a quick update to DisplayFusion tonight that corrects a couple of smalls bugs. The first fix helps people who had their wallpaper offset incorrectly, causing gaps in the wallpaper. The second was something I forgot to include in the initial release, proxy settings for internet access (auto-update, Flickr images... etc). Well, you can now configure a proxy server in the "Settings" window.

Check out the latest version of DisplayFusion today!
