If I do not have enough space on the Windows task bar, task bar icons are added to a second row to which I am able to scroll (see attachment). AWM's task bar does not have this behaviour it seems (tested on Vista and Windows 7). Because of this I regularly "lose" programs that are running. This, of course, occurs more frequently if I use a monitor with a lower horizontal resolution. Sometimes I am looking everywhere and only after some time do I realize the program is not displayed on AWM's task bar. I do not know whether I should set something or that this is just the way AWM behaves at the moment (tested in AWM 7.5.1. and 8.0 beta 3). If it is not something I can adjust in the settings then I would really like this to be added to AWM. IMO in that case it should be added, because not displaying a running program on the task bar is a really big omission.

Hello Alexander,
Welcome to the "family"! I made a 2 row taskbar by indeed opening many windows. At first the taskbar buttons will get smaller, but at a certain point a 2nd row is added. On Windows XP (just tested) and Windows Vista you should see a 2nd row using the standard settings of the Windows taskbar. On Windows 7 however you need to set the taskbar properties for the Taskbar buttons at "Never combine" to see a second row appear.
The screen shot above was taken of the 2nd row of the taskbar on my Vista Ultimate 32-bit machine.
Best regards.

Hello Bogdan,
Should this not be treated as a bug instead of a request? AWM taskbar's behaviour deviates from normal (Windows') taskbar behaviour and because of that one can lose programs on the taskbar.
Thanks!
Best regards.

Actually, yes. It's more bug than a feature request. But it makes no big difference for us in this case.
Best regards.
