Start11 2.0.7.1
Windows 11 Build 22631.3235
(new install, not a VM)
1. There's still the issue where the Start button isn't fully covered by the Start11 button, so there's a 1 pixel wide vertical area on the right side of the Start button where you can click on the underlying Windows 11 Start Menu. You can see where my orange mouse cursor is placed:
This happens with: Taskbar auto-hide enabled or disabled, any Start11 style, any Windows 11 scaling setting (i'm using 175% here), Enhanced Taskbar enabled or disabled. But i couldn't get it to happen when scaling was disabled.
Windows 10 isn't affected by this issue (latest 22H2 ISO from Microsoft). It only happens with 11.
2. Then there's this:
Here's i'm clicking on a PotPlayer window that's out of view (this is cropped) and then quickly moving the mouse to the Start button and repeatedly clicking in the bottom left area of the Start button.
It makes both Start11 and the Windows 11 Start appear. I'm NOT clicking on the 1 pixel area that the Start11 Start button isn't covering. This issue doesn't happen all the time though, maybe 1 in 9 times, so you'll have to keep going back and forth between clicking on a window and the Start button to reproduce it, and it doesn't need to be PotPlayer. It will happen with pretty much any window, like File Explorer. Btw i'm using the Windows Taskbar auto-hide (not Start11's, it's too buggy) and 175% scaling.
3. Can you add an option to move the bar at the top of the 'Windows App style' to the left side'? So instead of it being at the top like this:
It would now look like this:
So the button placement is like Windows 10, which is wayyyy more functional. They're right next to the Start button so there's barely any mouse travel needed (and it looks better). At the moment i pin the Settings app because of the the inconvenience of the Settings button being in the top right corner of the Start11 menu.
The All Apps list was also made thinner because it doesn't need to be so wide. It would be great if we could control the width.
4. With auto-hide + 'Reserve 1 pixel at the edge of the screen' there's a small 1 pixel gap underneath any maximised window, where you can see the desktop wallpaper behind it. The default Windows auto-hide setting will instead place a slightly transparent 1 pixel grey bar in this area. Can you do the same? Apart from just looking bad it's also little worrying having that gap constantly there when using an OLED monitor/TV with a bright colourful wallpaper. It could potentially cause burn-in.
5. Don't know how to reproduce this... But with 'Windows App style' one or two items in the All Apps list sometimes become highlighted, as if the cursor is over them. Closing the Start11 menu and re-opening it will not fix it., but placing the cursor over the highlighted item and then moving the cursor to the right side will make it disappear. Nothing else will get rid of it. I'll update this post if i find a way to reliably reproduce it...
