Segments and the dissapearing sys-tray

[Lockszmith]

I have to say, after using StartAllBack for over a month, I am so impressed with your software, this was a great purchase.

I bought it for one feature only - the ability to move the task bar in Windows 11 to the side, as your app is the only one that achieve this. (Given Microsoft's people claimed they will not implement it because 'it is too hard', your app mocks their pompous approach, and does it in style).

Anyway, I wanted to report of an issue you may or may not be aware of, and ask for a way (that makes sense to me) to fix it, but I'm unsure if it is realistic:

This situation needs a very specific set of circumstances to happen:

• StartAllBack (Version 3.6.3, just checked updates) >> Taskbar
• Use enhanced classic taskbar - ON
• Taskbar location on screen - Right/Left
• Centered task icons - ON + Separately from start button
• Segments - ON + Up to three segments.
• On my 4K Display in 125% zoom:Tray Icon:
• I've set the tray icon area to 3 icons wide
• Disabled 'hiding' - so they are displayed all the time.
• I usually have between 8x3 - 9x3 icons.

The Issue:

• When I exceed 23+ active applications icons on the taskbar, the systray icons area disappears. The language bar, clock and notification icon remain, but the entire systray vanishes.
• Possible workaround for me that I've considered:

1. Disabling Segments - it works, but it's not as nice
2. Increasing the width of the task bar causes the tray area to expand to 4 icons in a row, reducing the height - this reduces the height of the systrey by a bit, but only a bit.

Why I think this is a bug:

• With Segments disabled, although taskbar is set as centered, the icons are pushed up as new icons show up.
• I noticed this is also true when Segments are enabled, only it causes the systray to disappear. (it's rather visible in the screenshots I took when you look at them side-by-side).

This might be of no interest to you to try and address, that's completely fine.

In the case you will attempt fixing this, below is information about my Windows install and screenshots that I thought might help explain the issue.

Whether you fix this or not, your application is awesome, and I can't recommend it enough.
