G-Force Taskbar entry

Post by Arcadian Jester »

with preivous versions (last one I had was v2.5.3), when G-Force was running, there was no task-bar entry showing up. Now, when G-Force is running, there is a task-bar entry. Is there any way to disable, or not show the task-bar entry?

thanx.

eh, i suppose it comes down to personal preference overall, but from when i've been using it, its always gone along with winamp, so whenever winamp is open, g-force is open. so the one winamp icon in my system tray is enough to let me know its running.
also, since i can see the g-force window open all the time, ie, i never have anything over it, so i can always tell its running.
now, this is where it comes down to the persona preference, i like to have things as clean and uncluttered as possible, to the point where i have nothing on my desktop. (yea, some may call it anal, but i've seen some peoples desktops and can't understand how they find anything). so anyway, another taksbar entry on my taskbar, when there's no reason that i would ever wanna click on it, just seems like wasted space to me.

would it be possible to put an entry in the boot.ini file as to whether or not it shows up in the taskbar? or maybe an option to put it in the system tray even?

hope my opinions help.

here's my setup for a reference. In it, i can always see g-force open, so there's no need for a taskbar entry, and i think that if anybody is using it, it'll usually be a viewable entry, so they'll always know its running.

but i, for one, know that my opinion is far from that of the masses, so whatever you decide to do will be good i'm sure. just let my vote count for the option suggeston.

thanx for the awsome plugin.
