Settings advanced settings : i want to force the startbutton to be position in the middle of all skins..Not vertical middle...look at the picture !
mhh i had a look at the OP gif and im not seeing anything vertical there all i see is a horizontal taskbar with the startbutton placed in the middle thats why i mentioned the windowblinds setting.And if i understood that setting correct it should be also working for vertical placement since its forced to be in the center of the taskbar and not the screen.Anyway i was just trying to help cya

Let me try. All that setting does is move the start button up a tiny bit on
the taskbar (vertical) so its centered. It does not move it to the right so its
centered at the bottom of the screen (horizontal). In other words the start
button stays almost exactly where it is and does not move to the middle at the
bottom of the screen like the photo shows in the OP.

I know does the same for me thats why i was hoping for Neil to comment on this if its just forcing the SB to center on the position of the normal S button i dont understand the value for this force option. ( unless it would center middle like i mentioned before )

I believe that is what it is meant to do because with some skins it works or looks a little better but I may be wrong.

@AVman WOW that is pretty impressive! Was that just messing around in SKS? Gosh I'm definitely going to have to get over my nerves and try my hand at this thing, but I can't even draw a bad stick figure.. so it might be a hot mess
