github RoundedTB/RoundedTB P3
Demo preview release for R3

latest releases: R3.1, P3.1B, R3...
pre-release2 years ago

So...

A bunch of y'all have been wanting to play around with some of the upcoming features but I'm not quite done with R3 yet. As such, I thought I'd give you all this early prerelease version!

Notable features:

  • New default settings of 2/16
  • Early DWM patch for better TTB/TBX support
  • Faster update detection
  • You can no longer run this build and future builds if any version of RoundedTB is already running.
  • Dynamic and split taskbar mode for Windows 11 and 10 respectively:

This is a preview release; I don't want you peeps using it and breaking your stuff. As such, running on startup is disabled, and you'll get a warning message every time RTB starts. There's also a different red icon to indicate it's a preview build.

Seriously, there's loads of bugs in this release. Loads of flickering in places, autohide is broken, Windows 10 support with the new split taskbar is iffy at best etc. - please don't file issues on them, chances are I'm 110% aware! I'll be doing a second prerelease prior to R3 where I'd love to get some feedback and any bug reports prior to the actual release, but for now just have a play around.

Things to bear in mind:

  • Autohide will not work for now; make sure it's disabled before running this build.
  • If you accidentally lose access to the system tray and the RTB window, press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to bring up Task Manager, end RoundedTB, then restart Explorer.
  • Dynamic mode won't actually be dynamic on Windows 10 - nor will it work at all if the taskbar is vertical.
  • If you're on Windows 10 and you want to use split taskbar mode , right-click on the taskbar before enabling Dynamic Mode (will be Split Mode in R3), select Toolbars > New Toolbar and choose/create any empty folder. Then, just right-click the toolbar, and disable "Show Title". You can now resize this however you want, and when you enable Dynamic Mode, it will crop out that toolbar.
  • This build is not signed because I can't afford a CSC yet
  • I'm really really tired lol it's 5AM
  • Again, not going to be fixing bugs for this. Please refrain from filing issues and PRs based on this code.
  • If you want to talk about (read: not ask for support regarding) this build, feel free to message me on Discord at Torch#8888 or DM me on Twitter @​TorchCTI (I also randomly post progress updates here so y'know).

Thank you so much for all the support and for using RoundedTB it means the world to me ❤️ - I really can't wait for you to get your hands on the final release build for R3.0, and I promise I've got even more cool ideas planned for the future!
