Option to make changes permanent if possible

Anonymous 9 years ago updated 9 years ago 2
I have installed 7tt expecting these changes to be permanent and I see how most people like the fact that this is not a reg hack, but, as always, I'm that one exception that doesn't like running a process to keep those settings alive and I'm sure I'm not the only one. So in my opinion it would be great if there was an option to make changes permanent. I'm sure if this is possible, the hardest part would be to make the interface, but something tells me though, that this is not realistic.

I have made some registry hacks myself, but I'm not really that experienced, so I don't even know if any option could be permanent and stable. But this is just an idea...
I will look into this and make an application myself if I can make certain changes permanent (in my VM).

Something to note: after all this doesn't change much since a single process that monitors a taskbar is less CPU intensive than my audio driver, but I just don't like 3rd party processes just to keep settings alive, it just doesn't look that functional to me, and also... Placebo...
Answer
That's not possible. Please read the FAQ here.
As for CPU usage, it's nearly zero. The only thing the tweaker does in the background is checking for updates every 24 hours, if the option is enabled. Other than that, it's completely idle (except when you open the GUI or restart explorer).

Icon of closed window blocking active window to take its spot in the taskbar

hurda 10 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 9 years ago 8

Prerequisite:

- 7tt 4.4

- Settings: http://i.imgur.com/nROIhh9.png

- Any program which opens a window before the actual main window pinned to the taskbar

I used Firefox and its commandline-parameter to open the Error Console on start, so the target looks like

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -jsconsole
Additional info: http://i.imgur.com/r3iSpMi.png

STR:
After clicking on the tabbar icon, Firefox starts the Error console window (left Firefox-icon) and then the main window.
The taskbar and the Inspector look like "BEFORE" in the image.

If you close the Error Console, the active main window isn't taking over its spot in the taskbar, see "AFTER" in the image.

If you then close the main window, everything goes back to normal, see "CLOSED" in the image.

This does not happen with 7tt disabled and Win7 set to "never group".

Workaround:
To get the main window to take over the spot of the closed Error Console, switching from "Don't combine grouped buttons" to "Combine grouped buttons" and back fixes the problem temporarily for this instance.



Answer
Fixed in v5.0.

Remove title but still leave the icon expanded/uncombined

Anonymous 9 years ago 0
Friend on reddit has this effect from a theme pack:


The icons are centred in the taskbar and the tile is expanded but there's no label. Would there be any way for something like this to be added to 7+?

Task button uniform width when they are in two rows

Alexander Petrov 10 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 10 years ago 3
When task bar buttons are in two rows the second row buttons are wider then the first row ones (the picture attached). Windows 8. Could be nice if they were the same width.

Thanks for your wonderful program!

The Feauture "Drag within/between groups using right mouse button" Stopped Working for Me

Anonymous 9 years ago updated by Jorge24 9 years ago 8
I can drag within groups but not between groups when there is more than one item in the group. When there is just one item, I can drag the taskbar group icon into another group and the single item inside it will transfer. However, when there are multiple items inside the group I can't drag the taskbar icon nor the items into other groups. I am using Windows 8.1 64-bit with the latest updates.
Answer
There's not much I can do with the provided details.
If that's still relevant, please either provide a way to reproduce the issue, or try to find out which option of the tweaker, if any, causes it.
A video which demonstrates the bug might also help.

tweaker userecho password cannot be reset - no option in profile.
I can't maintain userecho profile - when I ask for password reset it sends me an email but it doesn't go to a page where I can reset a password. I have an orphaned account now. Have tried three times. leanne@pkc.net.au/LongtimeUser.

Feature request: "Cycle through windows" only cycles through windows on the current taskbar (for multiple displays)

Anonymous 9 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 9 years ago 2
With multiple displays when using the "Show taskbar buttons on" options of "Main taskbar and taskbar where window is open" or "Taskbar where window is open" it would be really useful if there was an option to only cycle through the windows on that taskbar.

So if for instance my taskbar was set to "Main taskbar and taskbar where window is open" and I had four Explorer windows open in total and two of those were on the secondary display then clicking on the Explorer item on the main display would cycle through all four and clicking on the Explorer item on the secondary display would cycle through just the two on that display.
Answer
I just checked it, and it works just like you described:
If you set "Main taskbar and taskbar where window is open" and open, say, five explorer windows, two of which are on the secondary monitor, then scrolling over the main taskbar scrolls between the five, while scrolling over the secondary taskbar scrolls between the two which are on that specific monitor.

If you meant something else and I misunderstood the issue, please let me know.

Add modifier key to sometimes override Middle-click to close a program on the taskbar

Paul Ross 10 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 10 years ago 1
EDIT: Never mind, I found that there Advanced options and I was able to do it there.

Please delete this idea! :-)
==============================

Hi there.

I use the setting to allow middle-click to close a window 99% of the time, for example, I have 6 Windows Exporer windows open, and I want to close a few of them, so middle-click on the ones I don't want - life saver!

But ocassionally I want to open one or two more, so need to right-click on one of them and select Windows Explorer. What I would like to do is be able to select a modifier key (Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Win) that temporarily disables middle-click to close, and instead reverts it to its default function of middle-click to spawn a new program instance.

Can you please add this!
Answer
Great :)
Also, one more hotkey Windows provides by default is Shift + Left click.
