Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Is there anyway to change the smart taskbar pixel height?

Hi

I'm currently using a custom Windows 7 theme http://fav.me/d2lhrrb which uses a shorter taskbar than normal (I think it's 22 pixels tall)

On the primary monitor it is fine, but on the secondary monitor the taskbar is a few pixels taller.

Is there anyway to change this? I've tried to set a "HeightOverride" value in the registry as explained in one of the release notes but it doesn't seem to do anything. I've also had a look in the registry and found "Size : 0,30" Which I assumed was the pixel size of the bar, but changing this value didn't change anything.

If anyone knows anything about how to change this I would be very grateful for some help :)

This won't work, HeightOverride isn't supported in version 3 of UltraMon, and changing the Size value for the taskband will only work if it's a multiple of the size requested by the band, otherwise UltraMon will ignore the setting.

I'll test with the theme, but am not sure if there's a fix for this.

Hi again

Firstly thanks for moving the thread, sorry about that.

If you're going to test it then it is probably worth mentioning that I am using the Haze variation from that theme package.

If I were to use the older version of UltraMon would that HeightOverride feature work how I am thinking?

If there is no fix then it's no worries, I might edit the theme itself to make the taskbar the default size (I wish I wasn't so OCD about such things hah) :)

Thanks for the prompt reply, appreciate it.

Kind Regards

That should do what you want, but 2.7.1 won't work correctly on Windows 7, you'll have problems with the taskbar as well as the window buttons and other features.
