Hello all,

Vista's taskbar height is "supposed" to be = 30px.

However, in practice, I’ve found it to be 32px (perhaps its because I have re-sized my screen from its native resolution to 1400×900?)

In any case, this is important for me as I always create my wallpapers with a dedicated area available for the actual visible real estate (i.e. every pixel above the task bar, hence, my default "workable" canvas for wallpapers are 1400×868 –> thus my calculation for a 32px Vista taskbar height).

At any rate, what is W7’s exact taskbar height? I've read that if you enable "small icons" that it is "supposed" to be the same height as Vista's, but again the original question remains --> 30px or 32px? (if it is exactly the same as Vista in my experience).

Thanks!

My Vista shows the taskbar at 30px, just like it is in XP

Same here, Vista's taskbar is 30px at 1920x1200. Win7's taskbar is 40 pixels on large icons, and 30 pixels on small icons at that resolution by default as well. I believe this only changes if you've modified the DPI settings (it does get larger with a higher DPI set).
