Feature: experimental skinning
Skinning in secondary form.
I know this is ugly without using hooks. But as a starting and concept point, let's add these experimental feature:
- [ ] Skinnable form behind the taskbar (main taskbar for the moment, multitaskbar later)
- [x] Use BlurBehind from DWMApi to show a taskbar similar to original but smaller
- [ ] Use LayeredWindows to draw a custom theme from PNG, maybe compatible with RocketLauncher background pictures.
- [ ] optional Draw over Windows 10 taskbar using a hacky LayeredUpdate restoring icons from IAccessible data.
It has some glitches, and it seems to be more difficult to paint skin on secondary taskbars if they are on a different position i.e. top while the main is bottom.
It also have some glitches on centering resizing, since hooking needs to paint not only the taskbar but the icons background.
For the moment it will be used a hacky (ugly) form behind the taskbar, it has cons and pros.
But it looks nice, ain't it?
Hi Vhanla would you release this feature in next build ? Regards
