WindowBlinds Not skinning second monitor taskbar correctly.

from Stardock Forums

Desktop ScreenshotEverything seems to work on both sides (Dual Monitor 1920x1080) including the start menu, right click and drop-down menues, with the exception to the right monitor Task Bar. This includes a problem where the the clock and tray are missing, and the location of the profile Picture in the start menu is positioned to the right. Is there a fix to this? 

 

I do have a screenshot but i do not see how to add it.

 

EDIT: Ok so i have that screen shot. Also I am using Display Fusion as my multi-monitor program.

Secondly, are you running something like DisplayFusion, or any other program for dual monitors?

 

I have the same problem with the systray clock on the second monitor with DisplayFusion and windowblinds skins..

Does this happen with all skins?  Does it happen with WindowBlinds disabled?

I'd suspect this is more an issue with Display Fusion.  Does the menu on the left-most screen display properly?

Might be just that, Zu.
I had the exact same issue with UltraMon on Win 7.

All skins, yes. What the heck is "WindowBlinds disabled"? Never heard of it.   ;)

 

 

 

I'll see if I can find that setting and get back to you. ;)

@Rosco Yes in some way or another all skins have either all or part of the above listed problems. Some worse than others. Also I do not understand what you mean by WB disabled? 

 

@Zubaz Yes all WB skins work perfectly on the left monitor. It is clearly an issue with DF I think that is no secret at this point. However choosing between a program that allows me to utilize both monitors and one that makes them look very nice, I must unfortunately choose utility over vanity.

 

I really hope there is some fix in the future or in a new version.  I sincerely thank you all for your help!

'Disabled' may have been the wrong word.  Try setting WindowBlinds back to the default Aero setting and see what happens:
