Multiple rows

bcook8 opened
Please make it so you can make the task bar multiple rows tall. I open tons and tons of apps and multiple instances of some of these apps. I've always been a Windows user, but I recently switched over to Mac, and this is the one thing that absolutely kills me. Thank you for making this app.

hi @bcook8

how should it work? would a setting be ok? i think that drag-to-resize would infer too much with daily use.

I think simply having a setting that says, "How many rows tall do you want the task bar to be?" And it would be even better to specify those on a per monitor basis because I still use my MacDoc on my primary monitor, I would only want one row on that one, but on monitors 2 and 3, I would like to have two or three rows. Thank you so much for the response, I'll go ahead and buy a copy of your software. I'm happy to provide more feedback, I think there are a lot of people in my situation that have been long-time Windows users that are coming over to Mac now. Macs are great and awesome, but there are definitely some things on Windows PCs that are better, and you're obviously trying to address one of them.

Sounds good. Just have to think a way that multi-monitor settings can be remembered. e.g. i switch between many docks in daily life.
I will probably give you a private beta with this feature, so you can be my beta tester as this is your feature. Also, buying the license will put you on top of the priority list.

Yes, I agree. I was a Windows/Dos User since '93 and i also felt very annoyed by missing windows features. As windows degrades fully right now, I suspect even more Users switching to Mac.

I ended up creating my own mac taskbar application that did exactly what I wanted and it works perfectly now.

alright, if you still want to use it, the new version has it.
