 Hi, I've added the quick launch toolbar on my second monitor taskbar handled by AMM 8.12.2 and while the taskbar is 2 rows high, the quick launch toolbar icons are all in 1 row

On my primary monitor with the windows taskbar this is working just fine

 Hello, George

What version of Windows you're running?

Best regards.

 George,

I was unable to reproduce the problem. Please see the screenshot: quick launch icons are in two rows on the AMM taskbar.

Maybe the width of the quick launch panel on the AMM taskbar is enough to place all icons in one row? Could you make the width smaller and see?

Send us a screenshot of the problem if it's possible.

Best regards.

 But it is clear on you screenshot that you managed that by resizing the taskbar to 3 rows at which  point the folder is indeed using 2 rows.

But that is waste of space, my goal is to have the taskbar occupy 2 rows *and* the folder occupy 2 rows like the native windows taskbar behavior.

 George,

It seemed to me that you meant 2 rows of taskbar buttons, which is usual way to describe the height of a taskbar.

This is most likely because DPI setting of your primary monitor is bigger than 100% and DPI setting of the monitor with AMM taskbar is 100% (standard Windows display settings > Change the size of text...). Try to change DPI of the monitor with AMM taskbar to 125% or 150% and see whether Quick Launch icons are displayed in two rows.

Best regards.

That is a good hint but I don't want to do that since it will break everything else. So I guess I'll stay with the current situation if that is the root cause.

Thanks
