Classic Shell: Forum

Hi,
up to Windows 8.1 there was registry trick that nativelly allowed user to have not combined taskbar items with hidden labels.
- When items are grouped you have all Calculators under single icon, so you cannot find it - Solution is "Never combine" settings
- But Never combine is too wide with titles. - Solution was to use MinWidth into HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Desktop\WindowMetrics and you were able to hide labels.

- This way you have achieved "Never combine, hide labels". See here for details and final result:

But since Windows 10 the "MinWidth" registry key doesn't work.

There is tool 7+ Taskbar Tweaker, which inject code and allow it, but I don't want any other tool for this, when previsouly it worked.

I'm using Classic Shell, so I would like to ask your team to implement taskbar control to allow "Never combine, hide labels".

This would save me from running another customization tool.

Thank you

7+ Taskbar Tweaker is what you will have to use as I don't think Ivo plans any taskbar tweaking that 7+TT already does so well!
