Trying to use TaskbarBorder with Taskbar3-0.306

It creates the space for the border and draws all the taskbar buttons properly, but it doesn't actually draw the border at all - just leaves it as whitespace.

I'm using TaskbarSkinLeft to define the image (and pointing to a file that does in fact exist).

As far as I can tell from the docs, that command should draw the left edge of the taskbar. .. but it isn't.

Anyone know how to display a left-border? Am I doing it right and there's some bug, or am I just screwing it up? :)

Post your code !

dunno, it looks right, unless if there's a syntax change (again) that i'm not aware of. have you tried removing the quotes?

I guess you should try, at least, to define

taskbarskincenter myimage.bmp...

...and you don't need the "$lsimagefolder$" prefix :)

The other images load fine so I don't imagine quotes are the issue.

(trying)

Nope.

smurth, tried skincenter. displays nothing.

Don't know what to say anymore: in my previous theme, I successfully used taskbarskincenter, taskbarskinleft and taskbarskinright with this version of taskbar3.

Have you tried to increase the initial taskbarwidth ?

Yep. Originally TaskbarWidth was set to 0 as it uses auto-sizing scripting. When I added the left border, it wasn't displaying because of the lack of padding allowed for it. When I set TaskbarWidth to 5, the space was made for the left border but the border isn't actually drawn.

no clue. sorry

Lol so check this out. I put in SkinCenter again and it bloody-well works this time. I donno what kinda wacked out stuff went on there, probably some unidentified PEBCAK or something.
