Taskbar icons continuously moving #30
Comments

Hmm, here are the previous builds of FalconX. Can you see which update doesn't give you this issue |
|
Same issues although it happens sometimes but its is very annoying , currently on the latest build |
|
Like it's wiggeling a little bit or moving with big steps? |
|
It's wiggeling |
|
Allright thanks, i will try to fix it. |
|
How about 1.2.7.0 ? (just released) |
|
Will notify you after using it for a while! |
|
Using 1.2.7.0 and yes the icons still wiggles when opening and closing an app , and sometimes just randomly . and in this update i don't know why the animations start a little when a new app is opened |
|
Version 1.2.7.0 still has this effect. It only happens when the available space increased. (Closing a window or hiding a taskbar icon.) It usually lasts 3-7 seconds. I've tested this with multiple animations and most of them wiggle like this. |
|
Well, i have almost completely rewritten FalconX today to keep the best and write better code. |
|
Sadly it still seems to be shaking. The animation I used in this and the previous video are QuintOut with 200ms animation time. |
|
Does it also happen with the other animations? |
|
I decided to test both versions on my other laptop and noticed no shaking with any of the animations. On my main laptop, I'm noticing the shaking with Quint, Expo, and Circ. UPDATE: Quart also shakes |
|
Allright, thanks for testing 😁. I will try to look into those animations tomorrow to see if i can find anything. |
|
You're welcome. Thanks for keeping up this project. |
|
the latest build still has the icons shaking, and also the animations doesn't seem smooth as comapared to the previous versions |
|
For me the icons are always jumping around (a few pixels) when I have 2 icons on the taskbar, no matter what. But I have a bigger amounts of icons, it only happens when I remove an icon (I have no icons fixed so if I close a window) and there are an even amount of icons left. It doesn't happen when I go from 3 to 4 for example |
|
Thanks! i am working on it. |
|
hey chris, |
|
Allright, thanks! |
|
Hi, I got the same problem, with taskbar shifting left and right. Here is video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58gSNOJvLA0&feature=youtu.be I noticed, it happens only if items count is multiple of 2 (2,4,8...) - shown in video. My quess would be there is some floating-point calculation happening and/or animation easing that is rounded differently every step ? Or maybe just the animation easing gets caught in loop where it overslides then tries to come back and gets caught in infinite loop... Maybe I can investigate more, but don't have time as of now. Hope this helps fining the issue. |
|
Thanks! this helps me alot :) i need as much information as possible about this bug to be able to fix it. Also thanks for the suggestion i will be looking into it when i get back home. |
|
Can you see if this testing build fixes the issue? https://chrisandriessen.nl/web/downloads/falconx/?dir=Testing |
|
Tested, didn't help. 😢 |
|
Hmm, Thanks for testing :) i'll dig deeper into this and your suggestion for a possible solution. Can you tell me if your on Intel or AMD? I am asking this because, my current PC and testing PC's are all based on Intel running different builds of Windows 10 and can't reproduce this issue. |
|
I am running Intel i4770HQ, AMD at home, which doesn't seem to have that issue. Maybe you can make some build with simple logging, so we could see calculations ? Since I can reproduce this issue without problem, you could get data you need... |
|
Allright, i will make a simple output logger. I will get back to you when its ready :) |
|
I also seem to have this issue. I also noticed like Carnage said that it only happens on multiples of 2. For reference, I am on a 1080p laptop with an i7 8750h. I also have the linear transition, and it also has the same issue for the "none" transition. I am also willing to help with the output logger thing |
|
Thanks BeardedOranges, for letting me know :) The "Output logger" is already ready. |
|
I have uploaded a new testing build v2. You can run FalconX by using "FalconXOutput.exe". https://chrisandriessen.nl/web/downloads/falconx/?dir=Testing This is how it behaves for me. |
|
I got it to reproduce when it was at 4 icons. It actually took awhile to reproduce, I thought somehow it magically fixed, but then it did the jittering thing and the log reflected all the changes. It seems to be moving from one pixel back and forth. You have to scroll down a bit, I went up to I think 6 icons, then back down to 4 and thats when it started. |
|
Hmm, Interesting. I can see it's constantly allowing to move the taskbar and it moves by 1 pixel as you said. It also never stopped doing it. I will make it output some more information so we can point out where the issue is exactly. |
|
Allright, here is v3. https://chrisandriessen.nl/web/downloads/falconx/?dir=Testing |
|
Ok, here is the new log, luckily it is doing the jittering again so we should get some good data. |
|
The first check constantly passes you to the calculation because, its 1 pixel off everytime. So what i did now is made some safety checks allowing only differences bigger than 5 pixels to pass. https://chrisandriessen.nl/web/downloads/falconx/?dir=Testing |
|
Trying latest build seems to solve the issue. It stops updating even though its 1 pixel off. Any idea why its pixel off every time ? |
|
I have no idea because, it doesn't happen on my side. I will have to investigate that further. |
|
So the Safety Check works but, it doesn't feel like a proper fix. https://chrisandriessen.nl/web/downloads/falconx/?dir=Testing <-- v5 Let me know. |
|
Alright ill test it out and get back to you |
|
Alright, so it still happens somehow, here is the new output. I almost said it worked, because it only started doing that like the third time I tested it at four icons. Here is the log |
|
Thanks for testing it again 😁. Much appreciated. I can also force the taskbar position to the target position when the animation is done. What animation are you using? Maybe is just a specific animation acting like this. |
|
v6 will fix the taskbars position when the animator has finished animating. |
|
Yeah im confused, it is still happening. I use have tried multiple animations, but during those logs it was set to Linear |
|
This is weird but, I'll keep trying 😉. Can i have your output again? |
|
@ChrisAnd1998 I think I found the issue. It has to do with Windows scaling. Some computers are scaling at 150%. I've noticed when I change it to 100% it stops twitching. Once I did that I switched it back to 150% scaling and no more twitching, although some of the features such as transparency aren't working. I hope this helped as I created an account just to comment this. Great application. Would love to see it stay updated. |
|
Ok I noticed something too. It only twitches for me when I have it set to the recommended setting (which is 125%). Both 100% and 150% didn't have the jittering, only problem is that 150 is much to big and 100 is pretty small at least for my display. Hope this helps! |
|
@BeardedOranges I actually meant to say 125% scaling. Sounds like we're having the same problem. |
|
Intresting, i will do some testing when i get some time :) |
|
Just another to to confirm I'm currently getting this issue. Running 3440x1440p & 1920x1080 panels at 100% scaling (if that helps). Interestingly just checked my second monitor and moved a window across and it stopped. Just a quick word of thanks for bringing this app out as well Chris, solved a long time problem I've had using an ultrawide monitor! Look forward to seeing more from it :) |
|
Thanks @digilocker :) Can you see if this testing build fixes it? |
|
It seems to be fixed now. I have done a lot of testing with my DPI @ 125%. |
|
Sorry for the super late response. I haven't had any issues since, thanks! |
|
@BeardedOranges No problem, thanks :) |
|
i'm having the same issue no fix yet, on the latest build, it keeps moving untill its completly gone |
In Windows 10 1903, Build version: 18362.418, taskbar icons which are centered are not fixed on a single position, instead they are continuously, performing an oscillatory motion.
