Small quick launch icons?

is it possible to get smaller as the small icons of windows 7 to the Quick Launch bar.  The small icons of Windows 7 are at least 2 - 3 times larger than the small icons of Vista, that leave room for only 8 to 10 icons in a double row.

I see two other things you pourriez do.  First of all, you could get a bigger screen and extend the toolbar 3 lines instead of your current 2.  I recently bought a 32 "for $250 TV and connected to my computer via a HDMI cable.  It is superb!  Of course it is perhaps not too practical if you're talking about a laptop.  :-)

The only other thing would be to decrease the size of everything, even if maybe it's not too pleasant to your eyes (I know that it would not be for mine).

Good luck.

  • resize the taskbar, quick launch icons,

    You have the ability to resize the police why not icons, tasks or the Quick Launch bar. Why 3rd party? Its nice that you get apps to do just this, but it would be nice if it came intigrated with broth.

  • MUTE button and its quick launch icon are reversed

    I think I deleted a driver when I was trying to fix a computer freeze. There was a message I deleted it while my computer may not work correctly, but I did anyway... Oops.

    So now, when my mute button is disabled on the motherboard, and then the audio in the quick launch shows it is not muted and when the mute button is reactivated, then the icon down below shows that it remains silent. So I guess they are reversed but I virtually impossible to get all the sounds work so that never.

    One thing I noticed, is that if I hit the mute button permanently, I can hear bits of sound. It's like I'm sneaking between the functions mute above and below. But of course, I need to function normally if I can watch YouTube with ease, etc..

    So what to do? I tried to reinstall a driver from the windows site, but I couldn't really handle this very well. And my driver installation CD does not work because my CD rom is not working well.

    Hello again triceratops108,

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Based on the information provided in your post, I recommend to uninstall and reinstall the audio driver of your computer. To do this, please follow this document on How to change or remove a program in Windows XP as well as Conexant CX20468-31 AC97 Audio Driver and Audio Driver EQ re - install on your laptop.

    If the problem persists, I recommend reformatting your hard drive and re - install Windows XP or if you choose to do, upgrade to Windows Vista.

    I hope this helps!

    Evening... Maybe someone can help me with the problem, I'm going to not be able to click & drag one of my desktop for the quick launch icons.  It's on my husbands laptop (mine is fine), so I don't know how long it lasts.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.  Thank you and have a great rest of the weekend.

  • Why 3 images appear in the quick launch instead of one?

    I installed Firefox 14.0.1 and when I click on the first time on the quick launch icon and Firefox loads correctly, immediately 3 layers of the icon images appear on the quick launch. and when I 'RED X' out and go back in I get a half of the screen of my favorites in gray!

  • Quick Launch toolbar in Windows Vista makes Me crazy!

    The Vista Quick Launch toolbar seems to have a mind of your own.  First, there is the part of the taskbar where the quick launch icons appear. Secondly and apparently in itself, sometimes I have a second "taskbar" separate from the main.  It is a customizable, floating 'to-do bar' which will sometimes disappear, then come back from nowhere share.  I'm so frustrated because I often use this second 'taskbar'.  I find it very convenient because I can resize and customize it as I want.  The problem is I don't know even how it got there, or why he disappears sometimes, and then, also without warning, all the icons will also disappear.  Where this secondary "taskbar" is, how it works, and why the quick launch icons, I put here change order and/or disappear, sometimes simply restarting the machine.  I spend a lot of time trying to get it back, but can't understand how it works.  In addition, on the primary 'taskbar' that contains the Start button, the notification icons are not always available.  In particular, the Volume and network icons become grey and unselectable when I go to properties.  Anyone can help to explain this strange behavior and whence this second 'to-do bar '?  Thank you!

    Thanks for the response and feedback.  I am happy to know that you have taken by the suggestion to create a folder icon to restore more easily.

    Unfortunately, the problem of notification icon is widely known and I have seen no response that even come close to being reasonable (or is downright wrong, misleading or dangerous).  I think it's just a random glitch in the system that we must learn to live with.

    I'm sorry, that you do not find the toolbar that you liked.  If you remember the features on what you have liked to have available, you can create your own toolbar and include these features and all the others that you would like to have. Here's how: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/73583-taskbar-toolbars.html.

    I hope this helps.

  • Double row of small icons in the Quick Launch bar?

    Hi people,

    I have my Quick Launch bar set upwards with small icons (my normal taskbar has large icons).  Is it possible to do the small icons to organize in two superimposed rows?  Looks that they would take almost this way.

    Thank you!

    Go to the taskbar and Start Menu properties and select use small icons.

    This is an acceptable compromise for what we are looking for, but never mind, you can not the taskbar is wide enough for two rows of small icons while keeping the nice looking for large icons.

  • Size of the icons in the Quick Launch bar

    The icons in the Quick Launch bar are usually about half the size of the icons on the desktop. Mine are now the same size, which is awfully big for the Quick Launch bar. Having the taskbar at the bottom of my screen, it takes at least two lines to display the icons.

    What I found the same icons are used, but it seems that there must be a way to set the size of the icons shown.

    How can I resize them to their normal size? So far, I found nothing on this topic, any ideas here?

    TIA,

    Margriet

    First of all, it must unlock the taskbar, if it is locked. Now on the first line in front of the icons, right-click when the arrow on the side shows. At the sight of quality performances. Switch to the kid. If it is already on small, for some reason any. Put it in wide and apply, then back to small to see if it returns it. [_1337_Pete_]

  • Quick launch has LARGE icons

    Recently, I had to buy a new hard drive and reinstalled Windows XP on my laptop.  After having everything set up again, I noticed that in my Quick Launch bar icons are very big and so I don't see that one or two unless I want to use a lot of precious taskbar space.  Y at - it a setting I have to change to the small icons than before.  Everything on the desktop is the size it should be.   Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Right-click on an empty area of the quick bar set. Go to view-> small icons. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
