Taskbar attempts to return to default causing a flicker

Description

Taskbar attempts to return to default sizing while application is running causing a flickering. This is mostly only noticeable while clicking any buttons located on the taskbar.

I had a play around with this, I think the resize is on windows end. You can eliminate the flicker by removing the wait time in the background invoke and making the ApplyStyle function async, but obviously this isn't ideal on CPU usage...

Need a way for the ApplyStyle function to be called if the taskbar is clicked so it doesn't have to wait for the background invoke.

Hey @VincentWillats,

Sorry for the extreme delay in replying to this. There's a high probability that I'll end up rewriting this project at some point, because this was mostly a test-bed to see what all I could do with the taskbar. Spoiler alert: there's a lot you can do. Repositioning the elements of the taskbar is a unique one that I found I haven't seen before. Unfortunately, no matter what I've tried to fix the flicker, there's a drawback. I'm sure there's a way, but knowledge is limited.

Anyway, I'm mostly replying to you because I wanted to 'thank you' for trying to fix the issue! So, thank you!

Hey, you may check out Windows 10 Team. Something similar is implemented there. https://youtu.be/P_QZc29WWiQ
