Tripredacus Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I finally got my new workstation and it has Windows 7 installed. I remember during my pre-release training for 7, the speaker said that in 7, you can have the taskbar go the length of all the desktops. Meaning if you have 2 or more displays, the taskbar will extend.How do I enable this feature? There does not seem to be anything in the taskbar properties.

Yoko Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 The speaker lied.I was on the Windows 7 TAP and requested the same feature. It was declined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awergh Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I thought I remember reading that it was implemented in some where no one expected or something but I guess it didn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odbod Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 They didn't lieAt school, windows 7 was able to extend desktops easily, and then extend the taskbar to the other side, perfectly and easily. That's assuming you use nvidia and its control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 They didn't lieAt school, windows 7 was able to extend desktops easily, and then extend the taskbar to the other side, perfectly and easily. That's assuming you use nvidia and its control panel.That's not a function of the OS though - that's the nVidia driver. You'd have to have an nVidia video card, the control panel + driver, and then it would work. The original question was does *Windows 7* have this functionality, and the answer to that is no.
