Taskbar Height in SkinStudio

Monday, August 23, 2004 by DanielMD | Discussion: Skinning

This is my first skin attempt and I'm trying to make the taskbar height smaller but I don't see any options to do this. I opened up "DogmaX" skin (as this skin uses a reduced taskbar height) but I can't see how he's doing this. some guidance would be helpful.. thx

Sorry I guess there was already a post about this a few messages down.. my bad..

Anyhow, my taskbar background is only 27 px in height. however when themed it gets stretched up to 30. When I turn off stretch to tile it displays incorrectly with a gap at the bottom.

If it gets increased 3 pixels when themed, then make it 24 pixels and it will stretch to 27 if I am not mistaken?

Nevermind I figured it out

TIP: If you want to change the height of the taskbar in XP, try adding/editing the top and bottom content margins on the taskbar buttons (And also quicklaunch ones too if you use them).
You can use thise to change the height
