Change bar orientation?
Is there a way?

Using OB2.
I created a new horizontal bar. I changed my mind and now want it vertical. Is there a way to change it through the Theme editor?

I'm afraid there's no way to change the orientation through the Theme Editor. But there is a way to do it manually.
Close/Unload ObjectBar;
Open the bar's configuration file (extension obbar) in notepad (or any other editor);
- e.g. c:\program files\stardock\object desktop\objectbar\[theme]\bars\[bar].obbar
Change: DisplayVertically to 1 (was 0)
- this option is found in section [object]
I tried it myself and it worked, but no guarantees. The final result, I think, also depends on the skins used.
Success!

your making a quarantee to a Troll who broke his throbber, had adaware eat spybot, installed nfw1.0 and nfw1.1 (at the same time), and accidently caused close to 60 WB skins to try and install simultaneously (pretty damn close to exploding on that one)
it was a hmmm... I like it and a hmmm.... can I fix it if I screw it up
