Star11 ver 1.41

Start11 and strange icons popping up to the right

March 8, 2023 10:31:45 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I just reinstalled Start11 and now find icons all the way to the right (not "belonging" to the task bar icons in the middle).
I can't find a way to get rid of them. I have no idea why they are there.
What am I doing wrong?
Please see attached file.

That is odd.  What version of Windows are you using?

I am having slipping problems in the time field with the updated Start11.  I am using moment 2 on a Surface Pro 7 with touch.  Here is the screenshot.

I also don't like the widget showing up in the middle with the Start menu Button.  That appears to be the only centered option on this new version.

This has not changed and has always been the case with the enhanced taskbar option and the experimental centre mode.

Without enhanced taskbar enabled you have exactly the same options as without Start11.

What scaling factor is your screen set to?

With Windows 11 style start menu and enhance taskbar on, nothing can be clicked in start menu. The menu just pops up like a static image.

I am also using Start11 on my desktop and I don't see those centering options.  What exactly enables an enhanced taskbar, since there are a lot options to control it, and I haven't found the right one yet   

I've disabled the touch screen option for now until things are fixed up.

Here is where you find the enhanced taskbar setting

Thanks.  That enhanced setting brought we back to what I was previously using.

Any news?

I still can't get Start11 to work as before... Have purged and reinstalled...

I tried all settings....

How about a manual/instruction for all the settings?

And how about a straighter and clearer path/menu when changing settings?

Love Start11 - when it works!

I believe we have reproduced this issue being caused by small taskbar mode when in experimental centre mode.  Disable either of those options and you should be fine for now.
