Taskbar app badge visual issues

from Stardock Forums

Hello.

Looking for help with a small annoyance with Start11. When 'Enhance the Taskbar' is enabled, taskbar app badges seem to be in the wrong place. I've posted a comparison below.

Taskbar enhancement enabled:

Functionality-wise, nothing is broken, but it is a small visual annoyance. Has anyone else encountered this or knows a fix?

What scaling factor is your display set to and what taskbar size?

Is the issue only on that specific application, how about other application such as teams, telegram etc?

Need more information on your system:

  1. Windows full version number, use Winver.exe to get it.
  2. Start11 Vi or V2 version number.

Thank you,

Please try Start11 Version 2.0 Beta 3: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products  (Start11 v2 - Download 2.05 [Beta]). Reboot after install and retest. Report back.

I tested this on my system with enhanced taskbar on and with it off. I don't see this issue either.

Windows 11 - 22635.2700; Start11v2 - 2.0.0.5

I could explain it if the taskbar is set to small mode as there is less space

I thought that too, but I tried on Large mode too and the badges were still out of place for me. It's interesting that it doesn't seem to occur for anyone else.
