Darkenmal Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Hi, I'm trying to get my date back on my taskbar. The time is still there, but it vanished a few weeks ago. I have a 4k monitor and my font size is 135%. If I lower it to 115% it comes back, but up until a few weeks ago it was there. I can also enlarge the taskbar to make it come back, but I don't want to do that. Any ideas? Thanks.

In my case, I'm at 100% scaling so setting it Segoe UI size 8pt was enough. In your case, you might need to choose a different font size.
IMPALA67 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 One question: why is there such a white box? I remember Windows 10 and it wasn't like that. Could it be a mistake?

The taskbar is markedly different. Plain8 uses the Windows 8 active icon styling with the windows 8 jump lists. Default should be renamed to 10 as that's the styling it's using but the jumplists are a hybrid of "default" and "native". There's no setting to employ the Windows 10 style jump lists and their translucency. Plain8 in the old StartIsBack on Windows 10 used the native Windows 10 jumplists. Is there not some way to offer jump list configurability? My dream mix is Plain8 taskbar with default/native style jumplists (only if Windows 10 jumplists are not possible). Happy to donate to try make this possible.
Ataemonus Posted February 19 Posted February 19 I'd happilly donate for some features as well, but it does not seem likely it would happen. 1

I'm not sure what SAB jump lists lack? What's different with Default + sharp corners from Win10? Native jump lists can't come back. 9 minutes ago, winactive said: Can't find a way to turn this off? There isn't (it won't be optional in Win11 either).
_ANK_ Posted February 19 Posted February 19 @Tihiy I found a bug in the latest version (3.9.4) If I'm using the "Display as flyout menu (Windows XP style)" option, changing the "Display Modern apps in a folder" option will have no effect until I manually restart Explorer.
Alexey71 Posted February 20 Posted February 20 (edited) Found the bug. If you turn off "Tray icons - quick settings" in startallback. Then click on the bluetooth icon in the taskbar, the bluetooth menu is not hidden. See how the sound menu works, it hides automatically if you click anywhere with your mouse Windows 11 26100.3194.

Native jump lists can't come back. There isn't (it won't be optional in Win11 either). Completely disabling the Enhanced Toolbar works with the battery icon. It's a bit nuclear for one tray icon, but I simply dislike it. It also shows the smart charge as a percentage of the smart charge percentage (e.g. it says 100% smart charged when the charge is 80% when it's set at 80%. The default battery icon hover says it's fully smart charged at 80% capacity. A subtle difference, but added to the icon my preference is to 'stay nuclear') Couldn't seem to quote the part of the response that replied to mine (even tried multiquote, maybe I'm using it wrong lol)
