Hello, yes im a noob. and yes ive read the documentation, but since im not a programmer or never have been i dont get how you get the taskbar to auto hide.. it says that you gotta put : AutoHideTaskbar true in the step.rc, but where? do i have to put something in front of it or specify that its the taskbar i want to auto hide? please help a n00b :)
no, it's just as simple as you've read :)
just write "AutoHideTaskbar true" into your step.rc (without the "").
i suggest you to keep one module's stuff separated from the others so it's simpler to find anything ;) but it doesn't actually matter.
anyway good luck with ls :) it's a great tool
btw, only thing you must do before that command is to load the module:
LoadModule $LiteStepDir$taskbar.dll
or sth like that, i dunno where your module is and which module ya use :P
Did that.. didnt work though.. im running the theme you get with the installer until ive learnt some about this :), but what you said was right did not work for me... thanks anyways :)
post the step.rc, maybe there's a bug somewhere. and check if the module is in the right place. btw what module you are using?
the theme that comes with the OTS installer (Simplicity) uses taksbar3.dll which does not support auto hiding of the taskbar
as if that command was ever used *whistle* oh, you can also find some excellent hotspot modules *cough* sorry, it goes in the to-do list.
I must admit I used autohide a lot when I was using explorer but now I don't want to hide my modules, 'cause they're very useful
If you want to hide the whole Simplicity-bar, you'll need a bit of skills. That is, if it isn't an option in the theme. You'll need to script it, which is probably a bit too hard if you're totally new to the whole LS/step.rc-thing. If you wanna try, then go see
