as TLB is using explorer to run, I was wondering if it was possible to use it with an alternate shell (geoshell for exemple) ?
if it's not could it be considered for a coming version ?


- shapeshifter - 04-12-2004

It's not currently possible to use TLB with anything but the explorer shell. Somewhere in the forums there's a very early version of a stand-alone application to host TLB (instead of using explorer), but I can't find it anymore. Eventually, Yuri will refine that application and release it officially.

I found this

is that it shapeshifter ?

if so, is it safe to use it ?


- shapeshifter - 04-12-2004

That's it, but it doesn't seem to do anything on my system (and I use the default shell anyway), so I don't use it. Maybe somebody else can report whether or not it's stable enough to use?


- Marsup - 04-12-2004

I'm currently on default shell and it works, I've got my main toolbar over the normal one, but I've got several and others don't appear


- shapeshifter - 04-12-2004

Yeah, apparently it only works with the 1 main TLB. Like I said, it's an early (unofficial) version.


- Marsup - 04-12-2004

maybe yuri has a newer unreleased version ?


- Yuri Kobets - 04-12-2004

Yes I have updated version. You can download it here.

New features:
* Support multiple toolbars
* Support XP Styles

But this version is far from beta Wink


- Marsup - 04-12-2004

are you sure for the multiple toolbars? I can't find how ???


- Yuri Kobets - 04-12-2004

Right-click the separator at the left side of the first toolbar.


- Marsup - 04-12-2004

erm ??? I can't right click on the back of the toolbar
Look at the attached picture, my wallpaper is white so you see all I have


- shapeshifter - 04-13-2004

Try changing to a different visual style. If that doesn't work, try right-clicking the area on the left of the bar, see if that gives you a different context menu.


- Marsup - 04-13-2004

My english was wrong Smile I can right click on the bar but no menu appears

It's impossible to run tlb host from inside "limited" account. I have started using one for security resons but TLBHost does not run unless I tick "run as user..."

Do you run the reg file from zip? Also tlbHost save some data in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\True Software\tlbHost

Marsup
What Visual Style do you use? Try to use classic. And note that tlbHost is not tested at all. I'm using it to run TLB and debug it.
