Hey,

is there any possibility to hide the taskbar with a splashimage.
Splashimages are on top of every window, but not taskbar.
SplashTextOn in contrast is on top of taskbar.
Why?
Thanks for responsing.

Hi peda..

You may get better results posting this question in the Support/Help section

I'll leave the topic here since otherwise a guest user might never be able to find it.

I just tested SplashImage. If you omit the A option, the window should be always-on-top of everything, even the task bar. At least that's how it works on Windows XP with Classic Theme.

Hi,

thanks for the answers.
Next time I will use the right section. Sorry.

Now I find something more.
I use my taskbar with the property "allways on top". In this case the splashimage leaves in the background.
It´s like "the taskbar is stronger".
My desktop sidebar also leaves on top.
I´d like to hide my working skript, espacially the opened windows.
Therefore I want to use something like Splashimage.
Is there any other chance?

The easiest solution is to change your taskbar not to be always-on-top. If that is not feasible, it might be possible to call SetWindowPos() (via DllCall) to force the taskbar beneath the splash window. You could also try "WinSet Bottom" on the taskbar, though that might have side-effects.
