hehe, I remember messing this when I was new here,

for those looking for the longhorn style bar, this should do it:

(mind you I havent checked I just went back to an old thread of mine)

<hwndview resid=main id=atom(main) sheet=styleref(main) layout=borderlayout()>
<ScrollViewer id=atom(scroller) sheet=styleref(taskpane) layoutpos=top yscrollable=true>
<element id=atom(backdrop) layoutpos=top layout=borderlayout() width=649rp>
<element id=atom(sectionlist) layoutpos=top layout=flowlayout(0,2,0,0)/>
</element>
</ScrollViewer>
<Element layoutpos=Client layout=filllayout()>
<Element id=atom(clientviewhost) layout=borderlayout()>
</Element>
<Element id=atom(blockade) layout=borderlayout()>
<Element id=atom(blockadeaccent) layoutpos=left width=1/>
<Element id=atom(blockadeclient) layoutpos=client layout=borderlayout()>
<Element id=atom(blockadetitle) layoutpos=top/>
<Element id=atom(blockademessage) layoutpos=top/>
<Element id=atom(blockadeclear) layoutpos=top layout=borderlayout()>
<Button id=atom(blockadeclearbutton) layoutpos=top layout=borderlayout()>
<Element id=atom(blockadecleartext) layoutpos=top/>
</Button>
</Element>
</Element>
</Element>
</Element>
</hwndview>

I think thats the last thing that was done with it, whack, windowsX and I worked on that in bits and pieces for a while.. that was the last code cleanup whack did of it all. hehe it started as something so simple too :p

Looks neat will try it sooner or later.

If you are looking for a VS that has it on the top, Matto's Foton port does.

Speaking of modifying the task plane...

I was wondering if any one knew a way to add a "task" to the task plane.

Thanks.

[Algnpelotudo]

is there a way to do this with classic folders? (i use the classic theme, with task pane)

i've found another shellstyle.dll in /system32/ but there isn't any code like that =/

any ideas?

Thanks worked perfectly , now if anyone can show me how to edit the text colors that would be great :)

[lnmnky]

that's just weird.

althought Visual Studio has it by default on the right.

Why the inconsistancies?

Does the explorer directory tree move over also?????

No the tree view stays on the left and there is a nice juggling affect where by the file and folder tasks dissapear as the tree view appears.

By the way I managed to change the title text on mouse over

Code :

element [id=atom(title)][mousefocused]

{

foreground: rgb(15,15,15);

}

No icon pack various collected over time .

how to revert back to original?

You should off save the original somwhere safe and just replace the modded shellstyle with the original inside your windows \resources\yourthemename\shell folder :)

I have tried everything I can to get rid of this black line , to no avail.

Element [id=atom(blockadeaccent)

As far as I know this is the name for it.

Any Ideas ? :crazy:
