How to Park SHIII on the Task Bar?

def5918 · 12-22-2005, 08:12 PM

Quite a while ago I read how to park SHIII on the task bar, now I can't locate it. Anyone know how to do that? It would come in handy during those, "Honey, are you playing that submarine game again???" Shooosh SHIII to the taskbar. "No Dear, I'm looking up stock quotes".

Thanks!

I normally hit the "Windows-key" and select "Desktop".

If another application is opened you can also switch to that application by using "Alt-TaB"

Umm, you mean ALT-TAB to switch programs?
That will minimize it and switch to any other program you're using.
It can cause problems though, I've noticed (mostly minor) graphical problems be doing this a few times.
I think you can also go into SH3's run properties (right click on icon) and choose 'run in window' which should let you minimize or run it in the background.

<edit> Drebbel types faster than I think

I can't "hit the windows key" anyway - I took that key out of my keyboard because I kept accidently hitting it while playing
IL-2 and it kept crashing the game :P

press the Alt-Crt-Del key together, the taskbar will come up just close that. Then SH3 will be sitting on your taskbar.
