Multiple Monitor exclusion feature stopped working

Postby Prockzed » 11.09.2012 14:00:11

Like the title says. I have two monitors. When I first installed everything worked as well as I hoped. My second monitor to the right would switch with dexcube while the one on the left would remain the same. I had it set to do this in the intended menu in dexpot to exclude the left monitor from desktop swapping. My machine rebooted last night likely for a windows update, and now no matter what I do to the settings, both desktops insist on swapping. I have tried disabling and re-enabling every single option that makes sense for this but all to no avail.

Please help me fix this, as I really love this program, but if it insists on swapping my left desktop I wont be able to use it due to it interrupting gaming, browsing and videos I use that monitor for.

:dex:

Does the left screen still switch when you disable the Dexcube plugin?

I do not believe it does. I'm currently at work on a different machine, but I think you're right. It only swapped both when dexcube was enabled. I do hope there is a fix other than disabling it though, as that is probably my favorite plugin.

Let me know when you had a chance to verify it.

If the problem only occurs with Dexcube running, does the excluded monitor actually switch, i.e. can you place different application windows there on each desktop, or does it only show the cube animation while desktop content remains static?
