Holger Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) It works like the Explorer TaskBar (not perfect).I use it for my own BartPE Menu (the 'Desktop' - Listview with IconView is not in the script here).You can also test it under XP.The 2 files (script + sample-ini) you can find here:http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/Holger/AIBartPE/!

Shinies Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 Not bad, the task manager didnt work for me though, and the start menu needs alot more features. Has quite a few bugs, but if u work at it, this could be good.
seriouswrong Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 Looks nice, I use UBCD4WIN of BartPE which has Geoshell - but I could see this being useful, esp if it auto-hid and could be put up top instead of the bottom. I haven't looked @ the code yet, but I ran it on reg windows to see what it does..Thanks!It works like the Explorer TaskBar (not perfect and at the moment a little bit slow).I use it for my own BartPE Menu (the 'Desktop' - Listview with IconView is not in the script here).You can also test it under XP.! Beta-Version is needed !The next target is to make it a little more faster and variable, also I plan a small editor to edit the custom startmenu.Please let me know if you have ideas or questions So longHolger

Holger Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 Update:Made it a little bit faster with directly using "DllCall"s instead of "WinSetState".Changed the taskbar clock to only time and set advanced info to tooltip (thanks jpm )Next time I will take a look to made it configurable through an ini file.So longHolger Old project:GUI/Tray menu with icons and colors Other old stuff:IconFileScanner, TriState/ThreeState GUI TreeView, GUI ContextMenu created out of a TreeView
MHz Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 (edited) Perhaps you want to build on top of this. I have not made a BartPE +XPE disk for atleast 12 months. XPE makes the taskbar and the rest like a normal OS setup. I went crazy and added everything in to make an ultimate cd. Recovery, burn backup with Nero, fix registry problems....til I reached the point of satisfaction of time added. Altough I have not yet used this sites package, XPE is one nice plugin to turn a Bart PE into a full live OS operating system. Damn, could even play movies with PowerDVD with sound that I could not with latest Knoppix. Just thought I would mention. No sence reinventing the wheel, just add to it . Sherpya's XPE rocks...Edit: XPE and Sherpya's plugin's are open source at Sourceforge if interested. Edited January 2, 2006 by MHz

Holger Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 Updated:- Now most things are configurable with a needed ini file (see link on top of the page)- TaskbarOnTop-setting is possible with ini-entryTodo:- More flexible Quicklaunch (more icons - at the moment only 5 are 'allowed')- Auto-Hide- Bugfixing- Possibility of running special macros/commands like in "Nu2Menu"Thanks to all for input so far @Mhz: I already know about XPE since 2 years I think (maybe a little bit less) but I use BartPE also at work where I only need a small system to test/check/repair things which should load fast so I don't need all this 'special' Explorer and multimedia stuff Old project:GUI/Tray menu with icons and colors Other old stuff:IconFileScanner, TriState/ThreeState GUI TreeView, GUI ContextMenu created out of a TreeView
MHz Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 Yep, you are right Holger. XPE has an impact on boot time and resources. Nice to see how far you can emulate the taskbar. It looks nice so far.
Holger Posted January 4, 2006 Author Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) Update:- Taskbar can have a background image or other background color- Menus background color can be set- AutoHide option is accessable through gui context menu (same menu which includes TaskManager) and can also be preset ini ini-FileSee updated files in folder - on top of the page.I also upload some small bmp-files as backgrounds so you can test it.So long HolgerEdit: Fixed a bug with DesktopArea-Resizing and reuploaded only changed script-file.

FuryCell Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 Cool. P.S. when i ran your program i got a notice from ZoneAlarm that it was trying to access the internet. I looked in the script and couldn't find the source of this action. Anyways, Nice job.

Gigglestick Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) What are your thoughts on having a "ClockFormat=" in the INI for those that prefer a more verbose time in the tray? Something like: ClockFormat=ddd m/d/yyyy, h:nn:ss AM/PM By the way, GREAT WORK! This is really nice! Edited January 4, 2006 by c0deWorm My UDFs: ExitCodes
