Placement on Windows taskbar?

Hey. First I'd like to thank you for this app, I've been looking for something like it for a long time, so it was amazing to find this app. I appreciate it.
A thing that feels a bit frustrating is the fact SyMenu doesn't show up on Windows taskbar at all. I know it has an icon in the notifications area, but having a taskbar would allow me to pin it on my taskbar so it feels like a proper start button. The floating icon isn't of much use unfortunately. I moved it on to the taskbar, but it immediately gets covered by the taskbar as soon as I click it. I tried having the floating button somewhere else over the desktop, but it feels a bit disruptive.
So now whenever I want to run something via SyMenu I have to go to the notifications, click the "Show notifications" arrow and then click on SyMenu.
Is there some way to pin button on the taskbar? |

No it isn't but it's a good idea to make it possible through customization. I'll put it in my TODO list.
Thanks for replying. Would be greatly appreciated, if it's not a huge deal to implement. |

Unfortunately it doesn't, no. It doesn't have the option to Pin to taskbar in its right click menu, and if you drag it by force there, it won't appear or do anything. It'll also not work if I pin it in the Start menu. The pinned icon appears but clicking on it doesn't do anything. It also doesn't seem to like being called by another process, I've been trying to run it from my FlowLauncher bar but it won't start from there either.
I assume it's because it doesn't have a Windows taskbar when it runs. Which is a pity because it's the only reason I'm not using it as much as I'd like. I created a menu with shortcuts of my liking, but most of the time I forget it exists in the notifications area. |
