If you have tested any toolbars with the Smart Taskbar, I would appreciate your feedback.
Unfortunately most of the Microsoft toolbars included with Windows don't work with UltraMon, but standard toolbars which don't require functionality specific to the Windows taskbar should work fine.
One toolbar which works without problems is the True Launch Bar, a Quick Launch replacement.

It doesn't look like the SmartTaskBar supports any toolbars that are simply folders with shortcuts.
I've got 3 toolbars (Admin, Dev, and Office) with shortcuts to common apps. These don't show up in the Toolbar list of the SmartTaskBar.
I tried dragging icons into the Links folder and enabled the Links toolbar in STB. Although I now get "button" for all the items, there are no icons.
How does UltraMon decide what toolbars are supported?

The standard Windows folder toolbar, which is also used for Quick Launch and Desktop, doesn't work with UltraMon.
The toolbar list shows all installed toolbars, UltraMon doesn't know which toolbars will work/won't work. The folder toolbars don't show up because they aren't actually regular toolbars.

I have noticed with this beta release that i cannot resize the taskbar in Windows Vista Business.
E.g Drag it up so it has 2 lines.
Will this be fixed in a later version?

UltraMon should pick up the locked setting from the main taskbar, but this doesn't work correctly in all cases yet.
To resize the UltraMon taskbars if you have the main taskbar locked:
unlock the main taskbar and change the autohide option under Properties. UltraMon will pick up the new locked setting, and you can now resize the taskbars as usual. Now lock the main taskbar again and restore the original setting for the autohide option.
If you only change the locked setting, UltraMon won't notice the change and won't pick up the new setting.
