Can I just move my taskbar to another monitor?

from Stardock Forums

I actually like the new start menu.  What I HATE is that I can't move my taskbar to my secondary monitor.  My primary monitor is what I game and I need access to my system tray when I'm gaming. 

Can Start 11 just allow me to move my taskbar without changing anything else?

Failing that and I need to display the taskbar on all monitors, will it allow me to move hte system tray to a different monitor?

I just started the 30 day free trial of start11 for this exact functionality. Hopefully there's a workaround soon. I will probably downgrade back to 10 if i can't find something to get my taskbar on a secondary monitor without having to set that monitor to primary. I don't mind the new look and other changes but this messes up my entire setup.

I need this functionality too. I only want to show my taskbar on my secondary monitor. I can't just swap which monitor is the primary monitor because I NEED the primary monitor to keep being the primary monitor for all other functions, it's only the taskbar which needs to be on the secondary monitor.

I believe you can still hide/ reveal the taskbar by right clicking the taskbar and choosing taskbar settings...or via Settings, taskbar settings independently on each monitor.
