Changes
- Limited vertical taskbar to half screen width maximum
- Resolved issue with turning on secondary screen taskbar when using a vertical taskbar, especially a right aligned one on the secondary.
- Resolved issues with DisplayFusion when replacing the OS taskbar on the secondary displays on Win11 with enhanced taskbar enabled.
- Linked to the above, resolved issues with multiple monitors when having no taskbar on the display and using apps which alter the work area
- Added a registry key S11_UseNewFolderBrowser which when set to "1" will tell Start11 to use newer style Folder picker windows. This goes in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\Start8\Start8.ini\Start8 and is type string.
- Resolved the root cause of the non responsive secondary taskbar rather than the workaround that was in use
- Added in registry key "S11_OnlyShowReboot" to only show reboot option rather than any other options (business users)
- Ensured larger start buttons resize correctly when used on a vertical taskbar
- Resolved a positioning issue for certain custom start buttons when used on a vertical taskbar
- Tweaks to how work area sizes are calculated to handle slower applications such as ObjectDock (switching from autohide to non autohide sometimes caused the wrong amount of space to be allocated)
- System tray icons made slightly less spaced on vertical taskbars
- Resolved issue with run as admin for some other apps
- Further work area tweaks for mixed dpi setups
- Fixed black icons in universal apps menu when using Win7 style and apply colour to taskbar/start in the OS
- Disables more submenu and uninstalling option for web links
- Fixes run as admin and open file location links for some pinned items
- Fixes issue with start button positioning when you have no pinned items or running tasks
- Hide start button on vertical taskbars is not supported
- Fix for OS search being in search field mode with a top taskbar not working. It is normal for the search box to disappear when in search in this mode
- NOTE: Hide start button on vertical taskbars is not supported
- Hopefully the issue with Explorer windows popping up on Win11 with ExplorerPatcher and potentially could happen on Win10 too.
- Resolved some issues with work areas with WinStep when using enhanced taskbar and Winstep reserving screen space.
- Resolved issue with running as admin for some pinned shortcuts in Win10/11/etc menus
- Resolved issue with non-functional taskbar buttons on the secondary screen when the focus is set to the taskbar or desktop sometimes
- Fix for workspace calculation when the taskbar is at the top of the screen in some situations
- Removed excess line in Win10 all apps list at the top.
- Tweak for apps which setup workspace areas that start at bootup
- Added two registry keys which go here HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\Start8\Start8.ini\Start8
These apply to horizontal enhanced mode taskbars only.
- S11_PrimaryTBOverrideOffset = how far to offset the taskbar from the left screen edge in pixels. Default is -1 which means auto
- S11_PrimaryTBOverrideWidth = How wide the taskbar should be in pixels. If the above value isn't set then it centres the bar.
- These are primarily intended for use when a user has a very wide screen and is using tools like DisplayFusion and wants to limit where the taskbar is positioned. They can also be used to make it look a bit more like a dock (non expanding for width) if you turn on rounded corners and use the overrideWidth value only.
