Help...on task bar!!
Wednesday, September 24, 2003 by Lady Aarielle | Discussion: Stardock Software
OK, I've looked but haven't found this question...maybe everyone knows how to do it but me... here it goes: How do you put all those small icons on the task bar?--the ones that look like the 'quick launch' icons--- I'm a rookie so please explain it like I'm a 3 yr. old. 
I can't figure it out!!

Thanks Crissy14, I tried that but when I activate the 'quick launch' I only have 3 icons and when I drag an icon there it will change one of the icons to whatever I draged there.....but it will only let me have a total of 3!! I went to check and "DigitalCHET" uses them in his 'Windowblinds'.....I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I cant get more than three on there. Anything else I can do??

The quick lauch bar will hold as many shortcuts as you put there. The amount of icons it displays depends on where your taskbar grippers are. To expand the list of icon in quick launch, click on the little arrow to the right of the icons.

Ps. To expand how many icons the quick launch bar shows, do the following: right click on your taskbar and uncheck "lock taskbar". You should now see a taskbar gripper ( a small graphic that lets you click on it with your mouse and drag it). Drag the gripper to the right Untill the taskbar displays as many icons as you want to display. Then rightclick on the taskbar again and "lock the taskbar"

If you are referring to the quick launch buttons, it's simple. Right click on a blank spot on your taskbar, then from the pop-up menu, choose: toolbars---->quick launch. You can drag and drop icons of programs to that area, and they will show up on your quick launch bar
