Unfortunately your question is completely wrong. The bar in OS X is not technically a taskbar at all because it does not display running tasks. That function is performed by the dock. The bar displays the menu for the application that is currently-in-focus.

I know that but i couldn't think of another name than taskbar when i asked. I also could have said that bar on top of the screen but taskbar was shorter and i think carbonfiber was able to understand me.
