I saw if some folks screen shots, that there must be a way to cause the open programs on the task bar to display wide.. Referring to sergio's theme, and a few others.. I have dug into the taskbar options, but not struck gold, anyone know how this can be done?

As Sassa states, change it in Taskbar Properties. The option you want is "Combine when taskbar is full".

You can do that, or just set it to Never Combine, if you want.

But yeah, you can get to the menu by Right clicking the taskbar and going to Properties, although you probably already knew that. :P
