the preview list overlays and hides the taskbar area

January 3, 2026 1:01:56 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

When I hover over the taskbar icons/list items, the preview list overlays and hides the taskbar area. Is there a way to make it stay out of the taskbar area with Start11?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need more information.

  1. Windows 10/11 full version and OS Build number. Use Winver.exe to get these numbers.
  2. Start11 full version number.
  3. Post some screenshot showing us the issue. So we understand the issue better.

Thank you,
Basj,

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. I see the preview cover some part of the taskbar button, but as soon as I move away, the preview close itself, and I can move on to other taskbar button. Don,t you see the same behavior?

Yes. That behavior makes my eyes confused and sometimes frustrated. Especially, I want the taskbar width much narrower to display multiple windows.  Any way to make the preview stay away from the taskbar desc.?

I applied the new Version 2.6 update of Start11 on Windows 11.

Still, the preview is covering most part of the multiple taskbar buttons. Very frustrated. We need another patch update.
