Why can't he have a screenshot if he ask? He even said 'please' . And we allready know how it behaves, because you explained that in your first post.
Besides, my opinion is that all code examples in the codebank should have a screenshot attached if they have a user interface...
Edit:
Sorry, I don't think I read your first post well enough. This is basicly just a class that let your form mimic the behaviour of the taskbar, right? So if that is the case, then I guess no screenshot is needed because it could just as well be an empty form!?

Re: Application Bar (Desktop Toolbar like the windows taskbar)
How can I stretch this appbar over 2 screens ?
I've found how to stretch it, but then it doesn't behave as a taskbar on the secondary monitoring.
Can anyone help me out, please ?
Re: Application Bar (Desktop Toolbar like the windows taskbar)
Thank you for the appbar, I have have a question anyway. I try to execute it 3 times and make the bar dock on bottom, as I put 2 bars dock on bottom they start to overlap each others till they squeeze my desktop up, it happen even on the dock right. Seems the problem is on the OnABNPosChanged() function that continue to being called in loop even on the bottom bars too and make them switch up each others. How to stop the bars then ? Thank you for the help.
