Re: Quick Launch Toolbar....Please advise....

Talahasee Hi
Unless there is a fault with you installation...or there are differences
between versions of XP.....I wouldn't know....I get it to work for me first
time every time....by..
hovering the mouse cursor over the horizontal edge of the taskbar until the
cursor changes to a black doubleheaded arrow....dragging once produces the
double taskbar......if you have to do it 2 to 25 times...it's beyond
me....there must be another underlying problem.....I was only posting to
confirm how it worked for me....maybe you got hit by so sort of virus or
installation error....mmm....maybe some kind individual will have had a
similar problem and post a solution....it can be a bit of a drag!

Hi Talahasee
I find for me....if I place the I cursor on the top horizontal edge of the
Quick Launch toolbar, ( or any where on the Taskbar) the mouse "I" cursor
changes to a black vertical double arrow, then left click and keep the
clicked button pushed down and drag vertically up......produces the double
height taskbar you are talking about.
This works for me....hope it works for you Talahasee

Thanks for the reply!
I guess I wasn't clear.

I click ("left click" means "click") and drag, and click
and drag, sometimes 5 times, sometimes 25 times.
I'm asking if there's some trick I don't know that would
allow me to click and drag ONCE for the double bar, and not
25 times.

???

TIA

Good luck!

If I'm understanding your question, you're trying to add icons to the 'quick
launch' task bar?

If that's what your asking then you click and drag a program from the
'programs' menu and drag it into you're quick launch area.

If you're asking how to get your quick launch visible, click on the menu bar
(blue bar), click Toolbar and then 'quick launch'.

I hope this helps!!


On this same topic,

I have a heck of a time --when I reinstall after a format
-- getting the Quick Launch bar to 'drag up". It starts as
one line or bar; I want two, so I have one line/bar (the
upper) for program icons, the lower line / bar that
indicates what windows I have open.

I can unlock the Toolbar, and I can create the Quick Launch
Toolbar just fine. I then have a one-line height bar across
the bottom of the screen, with the program icons at the far
left, next to the Start button.

I then to go the approximate center of the Quick Launch bar,
move the cursor til I get the double arrow, and drag up. I
sometimes get the double line/bar in one drag, sometimes it
takes 20 drags.

My question is (I've asked this half-a-dozen times), is
there a trick to dragging the Quick Launch bar up two lines
high? Or does it take 10- 20- 30 drags to get it moved up?

TIA
