Need help resizing the taskbar

[whelm]

I am working on a simple script to configure windows to a particular way that I like it. So far i have got almost everything working correctly execept 1 thing. I need a way of resizing the taskbar so it is only 1 task? high, I have tried for a few hours using different commands and methods but they all do not seem to work. Does anyone know of a good way to do this?

I dont know of a good way, but if you showed some code of ways that you have tried, it might help elicit more responses.

Hey thanks for the reply, yeah, the problem is pretty difficult i think. Here are some of the things i have tried.

Opt("WinWaitDelay",100)

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4)

Opt("WinDetectHiddenText",1)

WinWait("classname=Shell_TrayWnd","")

If Not WinActive("classname=Shell_TrayWnd","") Then WinActivate("classname=Shell_TrayWnd","")

WinWaitActive("classname=Shell_TrayWnd","")

WinMove('classname=Shell_TrayWnd', "", Default, Default, 0, 636)

ControlFocus('classname=Shell_TrayWnd',"",303)

that should elicit some sort of movement of the taskbar but it doesn't seem to work.

I also used a simple mouse script which works, but its not robust enough for what i need.

You will have to do the following:

Unlock the taskbar (If it is not already unlocked) - you can use ControlSend "{APPSKEY}l" to the taskbar to lock/unlock.

MouseClickDrag from the very top of the taskbar to about 30 pixels from the bottom of the screen.

Ok i figured it out its not 100 percent how i would like it but i think its the best that can be done.

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4)

Opt("WinDetectHiddenText",1)

Opt("MouseCoordMode",1)

$array = WinGetPos("classname=Shell_TrayWnd")

MouseMove($array[2]/2,$array[1])

MouseDown("left")

MouseMove($array[2]/2,@DesktopHeight-54)

MouseUp("left")

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",Default)

Opt("WinDetectHiddenText",Default)

Opt("MouseCoordMode",Default)
