Taskbar auto-hide problem

Saturday, August 7, 2004 by Derko | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hi, i'm now to the stuff.
I use what I believe is the latest version of Windowblinds (downloaded it yesterday). I use autohide on my taskbar but when I have a skin applied, the taskbar won't appear unless i click or scroll on the little line that shows in the bottom of the screen when it's "hiding".
I have the 'taskbar on top' option on. It won't show up even when no programs are running. If anyone knows a way to fix it, please tell me.
I couldn't find anything about my problem here (i searched "taskbar" and read everything".
Please help me.

cheers

i just tried it, at first what you said happened, and i kept on clicking at the line at the bottom until the taskbar came up. Then i unlocked and then locked it again, and that seemed to fix the problem, although it still doesnt work well at times, its a bug with windowblinds, perhaps you should report it to stardock to have them find a fix in the future version.

I have had this problem a LONG time now. Here is what I do.
Unlock the taskbar, move it, move it back then lock it again. Seems to clear it up.
I wish I could nail this down to a common factor, but it just seems to randomly happen.

i found that this only happens w/a few skins. i liked one skin a lot but it was giving me this problem. once i changed skins everything was fine. it may have to do w/the way the skin is made.
