Yes, I'd seen that thread, but nothing there fades it.

It's Win 7. And yes, since Vista, the Start orb is in its own Window. Winspy reports both the orb itself and the white button that I spoke of as
Start ahk_class Button, so I'm definitely controlling ...

I'm trying to fade the Start orb in and out. I can fade the taskbar in and out with no problems, but when I try to fade the Start orb, the orb gets replaced by a white plain button with "Start&qu ...

Ah, that could be the problem. Here's an idea: Run the AutoItv3 Window Spy Tool included with AuotHotkey, then open the Start Menu. At the top, it should have "Window Title=" then the name o ...

I've made it a bit more automated:

I looked and looked at it!

I am blind or senile. Or both.

Thank you!

I am trying to read the value of this key:

RegRead, RegValue, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StuckRects2, Settings

MsgBox, Key: %RegValue%

I have been trying to make a script to totally kill and then easily resurrect the taskbar. The mechanism I'm using hides it and switches autohide on and off.

Te method is from people on this thread ...

I've made a little ahk app to do this too. It toggles the taskbar with a hot corner.

Do you mean an option to make any corner trigger the hider (or all if you want)?

My latest update to it has that. I've replaced the file on the RocketDock link.

a_h_k,

I don't think your tool works in Win7. I downloaded it, but in Win 7 it didn't seem to do as you describe.

I have Vista on another machine, but haven't tried it on that one yet.

I've b ...

If you put the WinShow first when unhiding, the taskbar glides back into place instead of snapping in:

See this section:

{
If x=0

This tool is great. I've combined it with a taskbar toggler and given credit to Hotfoot here:

Thanks for the code. It works very well.

a_h_k,

The similar solution is this one Smile

I simply adapted the code you guys have developed to make it dock savvy.

I've given you credit as you will see if you follow a_h_k's link.
