Other Taskbars

Enabled "Other" Taskbars

I'm using the Arrow theme for WB5. WB5 has the option to use other start menu taskbars other than the theme that's enabled. I don't like the vista style round start button, and want to use another. When I enable the taskbar support with a skin that came with WB5, it acts fine. However, when I enable the taskbar from another unincluded font, such as ones from WinCustomize, it puts a dot before the start button and moves the start button to the right about 10 pixels. Is there anyway to fix this?

"However, when I enable the taskbar from another unincluded font"

This threw me off a little. Can you ellaborate, or better yet, upload or link a screenshot? I have just tried using the option you mention, used iSkin and Cyclops taksbars with my own skin, and failed to replicate what you describe. And the "font" throws me off. I hope we can help you out when further details are provided.

I meant skin, not font. Sorry.

Here are some screenshots.

This is the taskbar when I apply the Arrow theme but set the Taskbar as always displaying the taskbar from the Noire theme, included with WB5.

Also, is there anyway to make the background stop changing everytime I apply a theme or make changes to a theme and is there anyway to change the clock colors or is that done through choosing simple colors in the display controls?

If you mean the wallpaper.... open WB Config > Basic Settings > Enhance Desktop elements > disable "Apply any wallpaper supplied"

Clock color, and other colors are set in the skin, and will be reset everytime the skin is loaded, or re-loaded. You'll have to edit the skin to make any change permanent.
