TaskbarListComponents

What are TaskbarListComponents?

TaskbarListComponents are a set of components designed as Delphi wrappers for the Windows 7 Taskbarlist Interfaces (e.g. ITaskbarlist3)

What's in the box?

Currently TUO's TaskbarList components support the following features:

• TTaskbarListProgress - wrapper for connecting Delphi progress bars to the taskbar item of the application. You can also manually set the progress values.
• TTaskBarListOverlayIcon - easily add an overlay icon to the taskbar item of your application
• TTaskBarListThumbButtons - manage your application's thumb buttons in the taskbar
• TTaskbarListFormTab - display any of your forms as separate tabs in the taskbar
• TTaskbarListControlTab - display any control as separate tab in the taskbar

I would like to see it first

How to install?

Checkout or download the source at: https://github.com/chaosben/theunknownones/tree/master/Components/TaskBarList

The folder contains the packages for Delphi 2006 and 2009 already. Simply make a package for your own Delphi version if it is not already there.

Any prerequisites?

The package has to be compiled against the trunk revision of JEDI Windows API Library found here: http://jedi-apilib.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jedi-apilib/jwapi/trunk/ or checkout here https://jedi-apilib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/jedi-apilib/jwapi/trunk/
