The quick settings are still cut off in this build when the taskbar is on top. Running 22000.556. It does seem slightly less cut off this time.

Fixed issue with automatic taskbar color when on dev/beta channel Win11 and enhanced taskbar enabled

Adds a much needed level of stability to the taskbar for beta channel users. :thumbsup:  

Question: Is transparency and texture something that Microsoft killed off with their updated taskbar or is that something that can be fixed at a later date?

Tiles images when in Windows 11 mode will now appear smaller unless hide caption is enabled to avoid overlap issues

The tiles look good when "hide caption" is enabled. But I feel that when there are captions the icons are spaced too far apart from one another.

Start 11 v1.2 beta 4, Windows 11 22000.556, Windows 10 style taskbar - issues with the Start, Widget and Search buttons on a Surface Laptop Studio- the buttons are responsive to touch input when using fingers, but not when using the Surface Pen. All's ok if "Let Start11 enhance the taskbar" is disabled. 

@NeilB Couldn't respond to your question as the 1.17 beta thread is now closed, but yes apps in the taskbar are responsive. Additionally, pen input isn't working  for any of the tray items either.

Edit: I can reproduce this issue 100% on a Surface Book2 and a Samsung Galaxy Book360 using the latest Beta 4 build

Edit2: Custom start buttons respond to pen input (and only the start button, the widget, search and tray icons are still unresponsive), but start button again stops responding once I turn the "Use a custom start button image" button off

Confirmed that elevated programs can now be minimized. 

Also confirmed the taskbar texture is now painting properly.

I've noticed a bug when using groupy and opening 4+ programs it crashes explorer but only if using taskbar enhance mode of S11. Not sure if this is just a compatibility issue with S11+Groupy or not. 

 

Basically what happens is each of the apps start to open and get a new button but after opening them all explorer crashes and you end up with a button for each despite having the single button option on in groupy settings.

When minimizing windows they always animate to the left despite having the icons centered horizontally.

Turning on the Center option in taskbar settings (Windows not S11) animates the start button to the center but then animates back a few seconds later.

 

When minimizing a window from the taskbar button no other top level window is made active. It is if you minimize via the caption buttons

With mine set to enhance taskbar the taskbar still becomes unresponsive when a file copy dialogue is open, unless the copy is paused. I've had this issue on 1.16 (the first one I ever tried) through 1.18 now.

With 1.18 the behavior changed slightly. Instead of becoming unresponsive immediately every single time, it now occasionally (half the time maybe) stays active until I click any single item on the taskbar, then it becomes unresponsive until the file copy is either finished or paused. 

Edit/Addition: I've actually noticed slightly different behavior with 1.18. It's not totally unresponsive. It actually just becomes super sluggish and slow to respond. If I hover my mouse over a taskbar icon long enough it'll eventually give the proper animation and allow me to click it. And it seems if the file copy is large enough and I just give it some time (a minute or more) the taskbar slowly becomes responsive again.

Thank you.

Context menu of a taskbar pinned shortcut is shifted left partially off screen

Configuration

  • OS: Windows 22000.556, x64
  • Start11 1.8b in Windows 10 mode with Start11 toolbar enhancement enabled.
  • HP Spectre 360 16" notebook with Intel XeLP on-package GPU (Gen11, Tiger Lake H), driver 30.0.100.9864.
  • Single display (notebook's own panel), 3840×2400 native, with 200% "enhanced" scaling (the default, as opposed to "legacy" 8.1-compatible scaling, going by the name "Custom scaling" in Windows 10 and 11 System/Display options).
  • Generally, Start11 is set up to retain Windows 10 look and functionality, except Windows 11 search is used. In particular, the toolbar is left-aligned.
  • Taskbar icon behavior is set to "Always merge."

Reproduction

1. Pin a program second from the left, immediately to the right of the Start button.
2. Close the program and make sure no other copies are running.
3. Right-click the pinned icon. The menu is partially shifted left off screen (Fig. 1).
4. Launch the program and invoke the context menu again. Note that while the program is running, its menu is displayed normally (Fig. 2).
5. Repeat steps 2 then 3. Menu is off-screen for an inactive program's shortcut again.

Now we're likely onto something:

6. Verify the pinned program is inactive, launch Start 11 configuration and click on "Restart Explorer" in its Toolbar Configuration.
7. Right-click the pinned icon. The issue does not happen (normal menu like (Fig. 2).
8. Without any intervening action, such as closing the menu, right-click the icon again. The menu is now off-screen (Fig, 1).

The issue reproduces always and with any program, in both Small and Medium taskbar settings.

Screenshots

The images have been scaled down 2:1 to compensate for the 200% screen scaling.
A dark-blue border is added by the capture utility.

 

Fig 1. Pin's menu. The left edge of the
screenshot coincides with the left edge of
the screen.The menu is clipped.		 Fig 2. Running program's menu. The Left side
of the screenshot is slightly away from the left
edge of the screen. Menu is not clipped, as expected.

I noticed that the S11 Settings content is missing when viewing it in Peek (Just the peek image in the thumbnail) in the image the left shows the thumbnail when the window is restored. On the right is when it's minimized. Notice the content of the page is missing. Its only in the thumbnail and not the peek when you hover it. 

Also I noticed that the screen snip tool gets a button but doesnt under the windows taskbar (non enhanced that is)

 

ScreenGrab

Peek Thumbnail

** EDIT **

I've also noticed that when you minimize any window from the taskbar button first that window will loose focus an then minimize instead of just minimizing straight off like the std taskbar does.

FEATURE REQUEST: Default tile size on the Windows 10 menu

This had been by peeve point with the original W10 menu, and Start11 does not seem to have this option either.

Practically all of my tiles are small. When I pin a new tile to the Start menu, the tile has the default size, medium. It is slapped into the bottom-most group of icons, and reshuffles them. So every time I pin something, I not only I have to resize the new tile (3 levels deep in its context menu, but also rearrange the messed up group.

Would it be so hard to add an option for the default size of a new tile? I noticed a new option in Start menu/Configuration, “Shortcut icon should be sized...” in the Advanced rolldown, but it does not do what I thought. Maybe just use its value as the default for the newly pinned tiles?

Thanks you!

Start 11 ver 1.18 does not load all Startup items on Windows 10.

After the startup process begins, the screen flashes (not normal behavior) and then starts, but does not load all the Startup items. There are also many other startup items which are not normally displayed in the System Tray which are not loading.

Start11 should have no impact what so ever on that.  It doesn't extend the taskbar and neither does it launch or display those icons.

I would recommend a reboot and see if it continues to be an issue.  The most likely explanation would be explorer crashed at some point and those apps didn't recreate their taskbar buttons.

I rebooted several times to see if that had any impact and it did not.

It's not that the icons are not displayed in the System Tray, the Startup items are not loaded! None of the Startup items are loaded including MS OneDrive, Logitech Logi Options, iTunes Helper, Epson Status monitor, etc. They each have to be started manually after a reboot. This is a new issue with the update to 1.18.

I created a Restore Point before the update and after running the restore to 1.17, everything is working as it should.

Things to check as well:

-In event viewer, is anything showing to be crashing?

-Are they still set to load in StartUp (for the items that are not services):

Are their services (for the ones that have them) set to auto-start still? Example:

I ask as you may have had a Windows update as well that changed some things.

There are multiple errors in the event viewer. The Reliability Monitor shows Windows Explorer crashing upon each reboot. There is one instance of the StartMenuExperienceHost.exe crashing. All of the Startup items as listed in the Task manager are still set to load. All of their services are still set to auto-start.

As I said, during the initial phase of restart, Windows explorer crashes.

When right-clicking on an open window in the taskbar when windows are ungrouped, need an option to Close Window instead of (or in addition to) Close All Windows.

Also need to be able to drag to rearrange windows within a group in the taskbar (as with 7+ Taskbar Tweaker, which no longer runs with new Start11 replacing Explorer Patcher).
