It's possible to have vertical tasks with taskbar3 and some scripting for now, until if ever it gets fully implemented into the module itself.
The following is untested btw; you may not need to hide the taskbar when you have zero tasks if you have a border or a nonzero initial TaskbarHeight?
Alternatively you can multiply the number of tasks by your task button height, add any padding and size the taskbar each time, and/or also do it this way to autosize an lsbox in which the taskbar is contained.
