How to put the icon between the Taskbar and make the Taskbar transparent on Windows 10
The default characteristics of the Taskbar in Windows 10 are probably still enough to make the majority of users happy. However, did you know that you can completely transform the Taskbar to be much more beautiful with colors from translucent to transparent with application icons in the middle? To do that trick, please refer to the following article.
Prepare
In Windows 10 settings, there are options that allow you to dim the Taskbar. However, the blur achieved is very low, hard to recognize. In the same way, the ability to change the icon position of running applications is not automatic - understandably, if you want to put them in the middle of the Taskbar, you can only fix them in one location. which you feel is in the middle, and when there are new icons appear, the result is the row of icons will be skewed, no longer in the middle of the Taskbar. You will easily see that in the example below:
Therefore, in this tutorial I do not use the setup capabilities of Windows 10, but instead will use a small application called FalconX .
To download, you do the following:
- Access to the link: Download FalconX .
- Then click on Download ZIP .
When the download is complete, unzip the ZIP file and run FalconXSettings.exe .
Put the application icon in the middle of the Taskbar
In the FalconX Settings window , go to Position . Here the value of Primary offset position is to adjust the position of the icon sequence on the Taskbar. To set this value to 0, the icon sequence will be centered. In addition, you can move left or right with a distance of your choice (in pixels).
Click Save to save the settings.
Make transparent the Taskbar
Switch to the Styling section . Here you tick the box Enable taskbar styling and then select Transparent to make the Taskbar completely transparent (or if you want to be a bit dim then choose Blur ). Click Save to save.
And this is the result:
You see, the Taskbar now has a whole new style in a much nicer way!
However, for this effect to "automatically" start with Windows - ie, every time you turn on your computer, the Taskbar remains the same - you need to do a little more manipulation.
Boot the above settings with Windows
Go to the Extra section , check the box Run at startup and click on Save to save. And from now on, FalconX will "boot" automatically when you log into Windows.
A great and indispensable application if you are someone who wants to follow new styles! However, for those who only own a low-profile computer, you will probably wonder if such a background application will consume a lot of resources. Let's open Task Manager and check it.
You can see, FalconX only occupies about 2.5 MB of memory and almost does not consume any CPU or Disk resources. So you can be assured then!
Through the above article, I showed you how to put the application icon between the Taskbar and make the Taskbar transparent on Windows 10. Note that only Windows 10 has the ability to customize like that, but The old version will not work. Good luck!
