Multiple taskbar page list?

Hello,

Normally, I've got tons of pages grouped in a single icon, with a 1920x1080 monitor, and a two-row taskbar. Like this:

I despised that 'scroll' feature, and I was wondering if there might be a way or two, to expand that list to, say 2 or 3 column? So, there would be no need for the scroll thingy, and viewing/finding a particular window would be much, much easier.

A registry hack, maybe?

Thanks in advance!

-J.

Not possible, sorry. :(

On my system, I can have up to 11 tabs open in IE and have it display thumbnails when I hover over the icon in the taskbar. However, if I open more tabs, I get the list as you describe.

That's what I was afraid of... > <

Then, how about the scroll speed through that list? Is it possible to increase the speed?

I though I saw something like that somewhere here....

Maybe this is about a good time to do some tweaks for the OS regarding this issue... Maybe adding a 'vertical' scroll bar on that list, so people wouldn't need to repeatedly click on those obnoxious horizontal bars!

Thanks! (I'll keep looking, though.)

Oh, by the way, IE sucks, if you will. :) = =
