[Start11 v2] Floating taskbar not possible with hide automatically enabled?

Hello,

can someone confirm that it is not possible to create a floating taskbar when using the Windows setting to automatically hide the taskbar? I have tried several times following the instructions of the blog entry published for this some weeks ago already and never succeeded.

Then I have read a comment, that this is not possible in this combination. Can someone confirm this? No guessing, please!

Best regards,

Tim

Try disabling the Windows Auto Hide setting and use the Start11 Autohide mode in the Enhanced Taskbar settings.

Ah, finally found that option – only on the enhanced taskbar in context menu. Very unintuitive not putting this in the settings at least also, as usual. :-D

Thanks, but I did not like it; feels strange and maybe with that approach Object Dock would make more sense (if not for the experience we made with it several years ago before they canceled it and the current pricing horror going on at Stardock).

However, I guess I keep the enhanced taskbar at least for the additional customizability.

The latest beta ver. 2.5.2.0 has even more ways to customize the taskbar.

Yeah, I know a new version is incoming. At least they finally have something like a notifier now.

But I try to avoid beta versions when not absolutely neccessary; enough issues in the final versions for me. =(
