taskbar 306 textalign Thread last updated on 2005-08-22 12:57:34

is it possible to set the text to the left with icons disabled? it seems like the text uses offset so that i cant get it to the "really left". any help would be great. thx.

20 seconds reading the docs:
- HorizontalFontAlign (apply the following prefixes):
TaskbarHorizontalFontAlign
TaskbarNormalHorizontalFontAlign
TaskbarActiveHorizontalFontAlign
TaskbarMinimizedHorizontalFontAlign
TaskbarFlashingHorizontalFontAlign
General horizontal font alignment. With anything else than the TaskbarHorizontalFontAlign, Horizontal gets shortened to H. example: TaskbarNormalHFontAlign

.left (Left) .right (Right) .center (Center)

weird...

I dunno. Are you using the latest version of the module?
(maybe even thin about switching to xTaskbar?)

i guess it depends on something else (conflicts with old modules or litestep version - got to check this), cause it does not react on any align (right|center|left). btw i used alpha4. thanx anyway!

To test if its an inside theme conflict thingy, just make a new theme only loading the taskbar,

have you tried just left (not .left)?

btw, if its not in the center or the right it will be the left (left is default anyway)...

ps: I am assuming you tried all the variations:
TaskbarHorizontalTextAlign .left
TaskbarNormalHFontAlign .left
TaskbarActiveHFontAlign .left
TaskbarMinimizedHAlign .left
TaskbarFlashingHFontAlign .left

TaskbarHorizontalTextAlign .left


(nothing defined)
