    I have always kept my taskbar at top with auto hidden. Yeah, most people do find it weird but I guess thats what I am most comfortable with. Farhan Noor Qureshi

      David Wulff's "How do you use Windows" topic, made me think about the Taskbar, mine is always at the top showing a single row with grouped buttons, most people I worked with always found this strange :| So how is your task bar? Top, Bottom, Left, Right, AutoHidden, MultiRow? Phil Harding.

        Taskbar is on the bottom, with two rows. The top row is the applications tab list, the bottom row are shortcuts to my most frequently used apps, organized in two toolbars: generic and development. Event though it takes up precious vertical space, I find that knowing exactly where on the screen my app shortcuts is better than having to navigate the start menu or minimize all and click on a shortcut on the desktop. Cluttered desktops are one of my pet peeves... -- Russell Morris "So, broccoli, mother says you're good for me... but I'm afraid I'm no good for you!" - Stewy

I've always had mine on the bottom but, now that you mention it, top seems to make more sense because it puts it alongside menus etc. from application programs. I think I'll give top a try --- it does look weird though. John Carson

                Bottom, fixed foreground; two rows, one for quickstart, one for application icons; no grouping.

                  I want to set it auto hidden. But then, you can't see the time without moving mouse or pressing the keyboard, can you?

                          If I can remember the URL correctly, I uplaoded a small picture of my desktop for a weekly poll post a few months back... http://www.davidwulff.co.uk/daves_desktop_sm.jpg[^] There is a full sized version too, just take the _sm off the URL. Bottom, single row, separate taskbar on each display. Grouping is off (I've never run out of screen real-estate yet).

                            alright... how did you get the taskbar to display at the bottom of every screen? I have three unequaly sized monitors, but pretty much the same setup.
