Also, as feedback, the Windows 7 Style from the previous 1.4.7.2 version was WAY BETTER honestly. Icons spaces look awkward, Control Panel showing in 2 pages doesn't look good either...I mean...if you call it Windows 7 Style it needs to be Windows 7 Style and not a mix of Windows 7, 10, and 11. Just my two cents.

Do you mean the popup menus on the right hand side rather that the menu itself as nothing on the menu itself should have changed visually?

Things should only show two columns if they will not all fit as one column and so would need to be scrolled to see / access everything.  Scrolling is a terrible UI choice when there is ample screen so you can see everything.

You can add the S11_UseOldStyleBrowseMenus registry key (with "1" as a string data) to the same location as mentioned earlier to use the old menus if you wish.

Could you be a little more specific about the issues you were having?

Also were you using a 2.x or 1.x version before?

Hello everyone, the taskbars can now be rounded and floating does not work with the Windows 11 PRO 23h2 build 22631,2506 version.

The whole start menu became a jumbled mess; right clicking on areas was originally pulling up a menu with function, and after the mess started, the menus were large and blank; clicking on areas in attempts to fix or restore anything just made things worse. Had to reboot the WIndows 11 machine to get it back to normal - at least until I tried changing things again (which seemed to work at first and then became unruly).

I was previously using the previous v2 version.

At present, it seems find, but I have not tried to change anything since it just wastes my time and I have to reboot to get it to function at all.

I discovered something very interesting. Upon installing V2 Release I noticed that various context menus (taskbar, menu etc..) were purple with white text. Of course I assume Start11 is just using the themes accent color. I'm currently using the Glow theme. The curious part is up until not all context menus in Every build of Start11 were always black with white text. I mean every single version. I assume this wasn't the case for everyone since I never seen it mentioned I just assumed it was a UI design choice. Go figure. Well it certainly is working for me now and I like it very much. 

Maybe I will try changing themes but I'm afraid of breaking something lol.

Great work folks.

Just to confirm that this works fine for me.

And you did enable the option to turn on rounding in the section above it? (Taskbar blur, transparency, colour, and rounded corners)?

The other settings just change the rounding, they do not turn it on and off.

The resizing looks pretty good with the Windows 10 theme. But I feel the sizing scheme on the Windows 11 themes increases a bit too much regardless of if text is used or not for the icons. Going from small to medium is a pretty big jump in size for the menu style.

🚨We have a new build that we believe will address some of the issues brought up in this feedback thread including:🚨

1) Reduced a flicker when minimizing/restoring a window from the taskbar using the mouse

2) Resolved sub menus showing on popup folder menus being shifted too far right on Win11 setups

3) Tweak to extra control panel item showing

4) Resolved issue with rounded taskbar causing clipped taskbars on the primary monitor when using a touch-capable device with Win11 22H2 or later

5) Resolved issue with taskbar offsets on the secondary monitor without enhanced taskbar enabled not working correctly

6) Tweaked shutdown menu to stop list under it taking focus sometimes

7) Resolved issue with Win7/Modern style jumplists sometimes showing each item too small after switching menu modes

8) Resolved all apps / steam apps list not working from a pinned taskbar folder if you are using the Win7/Modern menu styles

9) Resolved issue with sub menus showing far left of the screen when they would not fit next to the open menu on multi column menus

10) Resolved issue with new Start11 autohide taskbar mode triggering too far from the bottom of the screen vs the primary

11) Resolved issue with Win 7/modern menu with Win10 style all apps tree not having Show Recently installed and suggested apps not refreshing the list instantly

12) Resolved issue with right-hand list on start menu flickering over search results during animation to switch to search mode sometimes with Win 7/modern menu styles

13) Resolved issue with leftover tooltip after launching an app from the menu if the tooltip was visible at the time

14) Resolved Win Launcher menu style when hiding search and username causing shutdown to overlap contents of the list

This build is out of our normal testing workflow and may have more bugs or unforeseen issues because of limited testing. This is our standard boilerplate warning for all out-of-band releases.

Wish the text color issue on the right click menus on the taskbar and a few other areas issue would be resolved.

The text colour is.  Brad Sams didn't include everything in the change list it seems.

I would recommend trying it out.

Ist the download-link gone already?

Nevermind, it's only very tiny.

Yeah!
