I just did a fresh install of Win 7 and TrueLaunchBar. I have a cmdline set to auto-hide on my main TLB bar. I also have the Windows taskbar locked. When I invoke the cmdline, the taskbar is not auto-sizing for the cmdline to appear (which it has always done in the past). What am I missing?

The option you have to increase is:
TLB Settings->Toolbar->General->Minimum size.

Set this option into something large (100) if you don't want the menu with two arrows.

That's not working - the empty space increases, but I still get the >> and the cmdline on a popup menu.

Hmm... maybe this is because of your custom windows theme? What do you use to change the theme and what is the theme you are using? I'll test is myself.

As temporary fix: add the spacer plugin after the command line plugin. Try the different sizes for spacer. This spacer will go to menu with arrows, and command line stay on the toolbar.

I use WindowBlinds (www.stardock.com). I'll try the spacer and let you know - nope, it didn't work.

You have to *buy* WindowBlinds. But it's not WindowBlinds. If I switch to the default Windows Aero theme, the problem still occurs.

I've purchased WindowBlinds. I've reproduced the bug with the "Subline" skin.

Please try to set any TLB skin for toolbar. As I see this fix the problem.

Either I'm not understanding you, or it doesn't fix the problem. I tried setting the TLB skin to Clarity, Dark Glass, Grey Matter, Myriad and Windows 7. I still see the issue.

What TLB version do you use? Also please can you send me (support@tordex.com) the backup of your toolbar. Maybe something depends of your settings.

Also the first method is working here. If the position of command line is not very important:
1. Right-click the toolbar and select Show hidden->Command Line
2. Drag the command line before the System Monitor plugin

I think this will help, but the system monitor will go to the menu with arrows when you activate the command line.

Sorry, may be my email gone to the spam folder? I tested your backup file. As I see the option:
TLB Settings->Toolbar->General->Minimum size
is equal 5 in your toolbar. You must to set this option into at least 10 (total number of buttons on your toolbar).

Setting it to 10 (even 15) didn't help.

I've prepared the video to show how to fix this temporary. The idea: place the command line plugin into the center of the toolbar.

I placed it in the middle, as you suggested.
