How do I set taskbar height?

from Stardock Forums
Is there any way I can set the exact pixel height of my taskbar?

Using the taskbar size options in Windowblinds either make the bar too thick, or too thin. With the "skin decides taskbar size" option, my taskbar has a black bar about 4 pixels high at the bottom of the screen but all my taskbar images are the same height (27px high). I'd like to somehow fix the tasbar height to a certain pixel amount but I can't find an option for this in skin studio.

Any ideas?

The taskbar height is set by the content margins for any images used in the taskbar. You can get it exactly as you want by matching all your content margins on all your images. Taksbar buttons, Quick launch buttons, system tray, tray arrow, start button, flashing button...etc. I believe you will be in trouble no matter what unless you change the taskbar to 28 pixels high but not sure.

I couldn't find any taskbar related objects or images that went beyond 27 pixels in height in either the image size or content margins (well, except for the glow). I did manage to acheive my goal however. It may be sloppy but I changed the bottom content margin on my taskbar gripper from 0 to -4 (to compensate for the extra 4 lines of black) and now the taskbar is positioned properly. Not exactly the solution I was looking for but it works.

Thanks for the help
