Title: Taskbar Settings
Post by: own3mall on December 13, 2013, 04:02:41 am
I decided to redo the Luna theme from a stock Windows 8.1 theme.  

However, I ran into some weird settings.  For example, there's a line at the bottom of the taskbar, and I think it's because the images / properties for opened application windows are oversizing the area?

Notice in my other theme how the explorer icon is more compact:

Anyone know where to customize these settings, or if there is any documentation on this?

::EDIT::

Should I be using content margins on the Taskbar images?

What's the height of your taskbar? Also what is the sizing type for the taskband?

Thanks, that was it.  I set the sizing type for the taskband to stretch, and it now looks correct.

Instead of making your image stretch you can change the height of the taskband by adjusting the content margins for the top and bottom and it will adjust the height of the taskbar Taskbar & System Tray > TaskBand > Basic > TaskBand > TaskItemButton
