One of the first noticeable changes in Windows 7 Desktop is the new Taskbar. The Windows 7 Taskbar post on the E7 blog clearly documents the reasons driving the Windows 7 Taskbar look and feel. The Windows 7 taskbar introduces new functionality that developers need to understand in order for them to take full advantage of it in their own applications and enhance their end users’ experiences. The Windows 7 Taskbar is an application-launching and window-switching mechanism that consolidates the functionalities from previous Windows Desktop mechanisms such as Quick Launch, Recent Documents, Notification area icons, desktop shortcuts, and running application windows.If you are unfamiliar with and haven’t seen any demonstrations of the Windows 7 Taskbar, please watch the Windows 7 Taskbar Overview webcast on Channel 9. This will give you some context for the technical material we cover here.
This is the first post in a series of Taskbar posts. It provides an overview of both the new Taskbar functionality and the Taskbar and Libraries Sample .NET Interop Library, which is a managed code wrapper and part of the Windows 7 .NET Interop Sample Libraries.
