DelV

A working taskbar replacement, trying to mimick the Windows 10 taskbar down to the acrylic.

UPDATE: There will be updates!

(No, it's not UWP!)

Features

• Supports Acrylic on supported versions of Windows 10 (FCU onwards)
• Functional buttons (Start,Search,Cortana,Timeline/Task View,Network,Whiteboard,Clock,Action Center,Peek Desktop,Sound,Input Selector)
• The wifi signal indicator actually does its job. 🆕 Now detects ethernet, disconnected states.
• The sound button imitates the actual thing partially - it does show volume, but clicking on it shows up an unfinished volume flyout.
• Manages open windows (like the normal taskbar)
• Can launch apps and bring apps to front
• Displays your pinned apps and can launch them
• Imitates the real thing as close as possible
• Hides your actual taskbar (literally, this is not like "auto hide taskbar" - if you dont exit the app properly,
  your taskbar won't come back on its own!)

Limitations

• Don't try to count them there are lots
• Its.. umm.. s l o w
• UWP apps sometimes do not show up, and are not pinned. (You can pin a shortcut of the UWP app, however, and won't notice any difference)
• icons of running UWP apps do not show up.
• taskbar only shows up on primary monitor.

FAQ

Q: I closed the app (through task manager or alt+f4 or something) and now my actual taskbar has dissapeared. How do i fix it?
A: Either restart the app and then close it using the 'X' button on it or log out and then log back in or restart your computer.

Q: How do i enable acrylic in my win32 app?
A: See my other repo for a comprehensive demonstration.

DelV version 1.0.1.0 has now been released (for x64)! Get it here.
