Hi, I know taskbar3 is getting more and more famous (since jesus_migg anounced is working on the true transparency support) but I'm still playing with the excellent tasks.dll...

I'm on Win2000, then this modules works like a charm. But, under the XP machines of some friends of mine, TasksTitles are surrounded by a pink halo (with TasksTransparency).
I guess this is due to the f**ing anti-aliased way of displaying fonts under XP.

Does anyone interested in updating this module in order to avoid this ?

Hum, TasksTitleShadow would be great, too :)

if anyone is going to update tasks then add some flashing of the icons too ;)

That would be really nice, ive gotten into a habbit of converting all the themes i like into taskabr3 JUST for the flashing tasks :(

Are you using "real" or "fake" transparency? I think if you use "real" that halo thing won't happen, but I might be wrong...

As for flashing tasks, it could be hacked in, but it wouldn't be too nice. Just the way it was written makes it a pain to do.

I happen with real transparency, too. But I use fake, generally.
Humm, something similar to the
would be welcome, too :)

give her one finger, she'll ask you the whole hand...

you can have that (kinda).

*TasksWrapCmd

and specify tasks to wrap every tile.... ask around, quite a few sneaky tweaks can be done to get what you want. :)

I've already tried *TasksWrapCmd (with tasks-0.92-b3) and it only works "OnTasksDel"; not "OnTasksAdd"

yup that was a bug... it got fixed in some side release. Forget what the version was called though... I think there was a mailing list post about it.

I'll try to take a look. thanks

well, I've started a new theme with no taskstitle. Then, I won't need taskstitleshadow; at least, not now.

my new theme is full of balls and, of course, tasks tiles looks like balls. I know I can drag tiles to make them look like a brunch of grapes, but I thought it would be smashing if there were some rc settings like:

then, tasks tiles will be positionned this way (assuming tasksdirection right, taskswrapcount 0):
tile1: tasksx+tasksoffsetx, tasksy+tasksoffsety
tile2: tasksx-tasksoffsetx+(tasksspacingx+taskswidth), tasksy-tasksoffsety
tile3: tasksx+tasksoffsetx+2(tasksspacingx+taskswidth), tasksy+tasksoffsety
tile4: ...
