Resizing tasks... Thread last updated on 2003-10-31 12:15:36

I've gotten pretty good at this now, thanks to everyone's help. I'm using tasks.dll, and it has the *taskwrapcmd so you can run the bangs in your scripts which is good, however...

Is there a task module that will run commands with other options, like a *taskcountcmd, something that would run a bang when there are a certain number of tasks instead of just when wrapping. Basically, I'm using an odd number of tasks to change sizes at, and it works good increasing, but not backwards, since it isn't going to unwrap again in the last size difference.

Cool, can you specify a value here? Like, when the 5th task is added, !dothis. ?
Or are those commands for anytask. It'd be odd to run a bang on every add, wouldn't it? I'm just learning scripting, and textediting, so bear with me.
Edit: I'll download and look at the docs of taskbar3 too. Thanks

actually it's not weird to run a bang on every add/remove: eg if u want to move sth (label, taskbar) when the tray grows/shrinks.

and actually there are newer versions of taskbar3 out there.. haven't tried them out much, but there are many new funky features... ;)
