Does anyone know how to determine the postion of the taskbar. I have searched high and low, used a registry monitor program, nothing.
In cases like this I usually just make a smaller screen so that the taskbar could be anywhere and my screen is still visible.
Here's another idea:
WinMetrics(0 ) = 1024 Width of screen in pixels WinMetrics(1 ) = 768 Height of screen in pixelsWith the task bar at the top/bottom:
WinMetrics(16) = 1024 Width of full screen window WinMetrics(17) = 715 Height of full screen windowWith the task bar at the side:
WinMetrics(16) = 964 Width of full screen window WinMetrics(17) = 746 Height of full screen windowSo with WIL's functions you can at least tell whether the task bar is oriented horizontally or vertically.
