Ventuz FullScreen

Post by chriss0212 » 06 Jul 2018, 08:47

Hi

A really annoying behavior of Ventuz is, that switching to FullScreen is hiding the TaskBar. I am talking about the Designer Window, not the renderer.

For me this is really bad because i don't get any information if there is an incoming mail or any other message of any program.

Is there any solution to change this?

Greetings

Christian

+1 I am getting this as well! Other members in the team are not having the issue though. I am not sure what happened to my laptop but it is very annoying, same in Ventuz 5 as well.

I have to run windowed and resize to fit my screen on every load. Very tedious.

Thanks for your reports,
i have forwarded it to a dev.

Is it always when you restarted the computer and the first time you start ventuz?
If you close and reopen ventuz it works ?

Let me rephrase the problem : The designer window overlaps the task-bar when the designer window is maximized. This is independent of Ventuz renderer fullscreen or not. This already happens during the project browser.

Does this correctly describe what you are noticing?

The "screen locked" problem is different from that, and this post does not apply to that problem (only one bug at a time :-)

I can reproduce this on my PC with Ventuz 5 and Ventuz 6, but not Ventuz 4. We can not reproduce this problem on Dennis his PC. So there must be an additional factor.

I usually don't notice this problem because usually my taskbar is on another screen (I have a 3-screen setup).

I have a very unusual task-bar configuration, but this seems to have nothing to do with the bug. I tried all kinds of settings for the taskbar, the problem consists on my computer.

We will investigate further.

Hey Dierk,

I believe this problem (or similar ones) have been discussed on this forum before. I have a feeling that is has to do with the display configuration. I'm not sure but I think this began occuring for me when I switched my configuration. I have a main display with 2560x1440 where I run Ventuz Designer. Left to it I have a 1920x1080 touch and on the right hand side a portrait mode coding screen in 1200x1920.

The task bar is hidden by the Designer window when maximized. If I press the windows key, I'll see the windows menu pop up and the taskbar is visible (and I can use it). It's win10 pro.

I have a laptop display running 4k (and is touch), a main screen which is running 4k and a third screen at 1920x1080.
Ventuz designer runs over the task bar on all monitors and there is no way to get the task bar to show unless I use the restore button on Ventuz to run it windowed which i then have to resize to fill the desk top. This happens on every boot.
