Now I get it, not sure about that one, you could take a look at the Finderbar.ini file, there is an "exclude" section at the bottom, but I'm not sure if you can add the start menu. Sorry not much more help.

ok...i found out, one the left side of the apple.logo is the "mac"-menu, on the rest (also the logo) is the "old"-menu...
i looked in the .ini and found a point "HideTaskpanel=1"...so it should be disabled...but it isnt -.-

Try to set in the Finderbar.ini:

[Window]

WindowLeftMargin=0

or try -1

On many Vistas the font is transparent. Nothing you can do about it as far as I know. (other than using XP)

Sorry, not using it anymore here

Hi,
sorry but i don't understand how to change the font. When I click on "customize toolbar", I gotta find a theme parameter file (that I can't find). Can someone tell me how to simply change the font and/ or the color? Because this is how it looks by now:

Thanks and have a good day.

Hey,

everytime i open finder bar it is always transparent how do i fix this.

and also is there anyway i can get my windows to look more like this on my pc i want the same look. (if that made any sense)

Ps i have the whole mac look already but i wanted the open window txt to be centered and the red yellow green buttons close together like a real mac with that little rectangle thingy on the side. help plz

[cjborodin]

yeah i can't use it on vista. either the text is transparent, or finderbar loads really strangely where it gets rid of the minimized windows -like it's supposed to- but that's all it does. if i kill it in task manager, it doesn't do anything and i have to restart explorer.

has landvermesser abandonded this program? this is my favorite mac bar emulation!

[alexk]

there is a bug with finderbar, if u select make windows menus transparent then it will not display any of the applications opened after that point i am using XP service pack 3 i hope u can fix this bug

[Björn]

That works here (XP SP3).

[david123]

where can i get old versions of finder bar

Hello, I just downloaded Finderbar Engine 1.5. I have Windows 7 Home Premium. Whenever I open Finderbar it doesn't look nice. It overlapped my former taskbar.
How can I get it to look normal.

[josh16]

I have the same problem as the post above me. The text and menu loads, but it just shows on top of windows normal taskbar, instead of taking the look of the macs. Anyone have any insight? I'm using xp.

[mps69]

Not sure if this will work for Windows 7 as the application was developed before this OS was ever released so it's a bit of suck it and see, but it will work with XP, right click the Finderbar, and select "Skin it".

As a side note, most of these types of questions have been asked numerous times here, try reading the thread before posting.

Sure it does work on Windows 7, even Windows 7 x64... look at my current set-up.

The Finderbar makes a screenshot of your taskbar and uses this. You have to have a skinned taskbar before or change the background.png in the finderbar folder.
