Comment on Vertical Taskbar – The (yet again) neglected child of Windows 7 by pxd

I need a fix for slimmer (comparative to the horizontal ones) taskbar, what’s so hard to give us the option~~~~~~~~~~!!!! Argh~~~~~ (Yeah, they should have the similar performance as horizontal ones, screw touch experience, we are smart enough to touch anywhere no matter how tinnier it is, and touch user can make them bigger anyway~!) *phew, great for rants.* I hope one day the fix can come. Period.

Thank you for posting this! I have been looking for a solution to this that doesn’t require plugins. It’s a nice elegant solution!

Very good thought man. Especially this:
–
In life, it’s easy to slip into a rhythm and treat your daily activities as chores – not questioning them, and maybe not even appreciating them. I think its worthwhile reminding ourselves every now and then, “There is a purpose.” :)

Comment on Switcher for Windows – Answer to Mac’s Exposé by neotaruntius

Great observation Isaac! Like I said, the problem is coming from the corners already having some sort of pre-defined function. I think your solution should work just fine, though I’d prefer the snapping windows to switcher. I think it’s a great feature, and I always find myself trying to pull off maximized windows from the title bar and resizing them by dragging windows to the corner. Thanks for replying.

This may be a little premature, since I just tried this solution, but it seems to be working so far. I had the same problem with Switcher’s mouseover shortcuts crapping out in Windows 7. However, this post inspired me to try something – I opened my Start menu and found the Aero Snap settings. I tried disabling automatic window rearrangement, and for now, it’s been working reliably. Maybe give that a try?

@User How about this solution: http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/887856-narrowthin-vertical-taskbar-in-windows-7/page__gopid__592467816&#entry592467816 where you take folders and make them into toolbars, and then drag them to the side on a vertical taskbar?

This link will calculate the efficiency of both the layouts based on the statements you type. As always DVORAK has an upper hand…. I wonder why did the industry dump it..
