When I set a toolbar in the taskbar to show large icons, it makes the taskbar taller. Is there any way to prevent this?

Try FreeLaunchBar.
Add the toolbar to your taskbar, right click on it, and select FLB Settings...
Add shortcuts.
Right click and select View --> Large Icons.

To fix the vertical alignment of the taskbar you can edit the theme's MSSTYLES file in msstyleEditor. To find the file, open the themes folder, usually C:\Windows\Resources\Themes
, then the theme's subfolder, then open the msstyles file in msstyleEditor.
Class View
: expand TaskBar::Toolbar
, then click BUTTON
Property View
: change CONTENTMARGINS
to 0,0,0,0
Replacing the msstyles file is a standard procedure:
original
to its name)Now activate the theme.
1How exactly would that work? What do you expect it to look like then, have the large icons overflowing out of the Taskbar? If you want large icons, then the Taskbar has to get bigger to accommodate them. – Synetech – 2012-12-27T01:52:30.397
Both my taskbar icons and my toolbar icons are 32 x 32, but when the toolbar is showing large icons, there is ~10 pixel gap between the bottom of the taskbar buttons and the bottom of the screen. EDIT: I added a picture now, see original post. – ChrisN – 2012-12-27T02:22:27.140
1Yes, of course, because the Taskbar icons are still the same size. You should show your toolbar icons; I suspect that they don’t have a gap below them. Perhaps your question should be how to force the Taskbar buttons to dynamically resize to the Taskbar height. – Synetech – 2012-12-27T05:21:49.820
The toolbar icons are centered vertically in the taskbar. – ChrisN – 2012-12-27T22:09:50.707
I'm confused. Could you post an image of the entire task bar? I may have read the question wrong, but as I understand it you have a toolbar installed. Does it appear on the right? Also, is it a third party toolbar? – Sam – 2012-12-31T22:22:11.467
I just tried it myself and it does indeed make the taskbar bigger. – Sam – 2012-12-31T22:24:00.100
