Taskbar doesn't automatically refresh between desktops

[Jesse]

Guten Tag,

I find that when I switch between desktops, the programs listed in the taskbar do not refresh automatically. Grabbing and jiggling a taskbar divider line will make them refresh. Any solutions? I run Windows XP pro.

Danke!

Oh, well. Just discovered it's because I'm running TransBar. Turn off Transbar, taskbar changes between desktops.

Can anyone recommend a taskbar transparency utility that's compatible with Dexpot?

Fielen Dank

Hi,

Dexpot itself
You can create a rule, and choose the transparency value of a Window. Works also with the Taskbar. Use the assistant and as Condition you choose "Window class".

Should work under XP.

Thanks you for the suggestion, Nebel, but while the rule does indeed work, it causes the same problem of taskbar listings not refreshing between desktops.

I'm now trying various taskbar transparency utilites, but with no luck. Seems to be a built-in sensitivity with Dexpot.
