Right-click the menu bar and choose Quit Glassline, or press Quit in Glassline Settings, under General. The taskbar comes back exactly as it was. If Glassline ever closes unexpectedly, it comes back on its own.
Yes. While Glassline runs, the Windows taskbar and Start menu are hidden, and you get a menu bar at the top, a dock at the bottom and Search on the Windows key. Quit Glassline and the taskbar and Start menu are back as they were.
No. Glassline needs Windows 11, version 22H2 or later. The Store doesn't offer it on an older PC.
The layout will feel familiar if you have used a Mac: a menu bar at the top that follows the app in front, a dock with magnification at the bottom, and Search in the middle of the screen. The design is Glassline's own, made for Windows 11, and Glassline has no connection to Apple.
Glassline works the moment it is installed, with no themes or configuration files, and brings a menu bar, a dock, Search, Control Center, your calendar and the weather in one app. See it side by side: Glassline as a Seelen UI alternative, Glassline as a MyDockFinder alternative, and Glassline next to the other taskbar alternatives for Windows 11, including Start11, StartAllBack, Windhawk, YASB and Cairo Desktop.
Yes. Each display gets its own menu bar, in the colour of the app maximized on it; the bar on the display you aren't using is dimmed. The dock is on the display you are using, in that display's colours: click anywhere on another display and it comes there. It hides only for windows on its own display. Search and Settings open on the display you are working on. To keep the menu bar on your main display only, turn off Show on every display in Glassline Settings, under Menu Bar.
While a game on your list is maximized or fills the display, the menu bar and the dock leave that display and the game gets the room they kept free. Glassline never moves a game's window, and when you switch to another app everything is back. A game in a small window changes nothing. Anything else that fills the screen, like a video, also makes them step out of the way. The setting is Step aside for games, in Glassline Settings, under Games. The games Windows knows are listed by themselves, and one started from Steam, Epic, Xbox or another launcher joins the list the first time it runs. To add another game or any program, press Add... under Add a game or an app; the switch beside a game leaves it out.
Yes, through the calendar's address. Google Calendar, Outlook, iCloud and most other calendar services can give a calendar an address that starts with https:// or webcal://. Paste it into Calendars in Glassline Settings, under Control Center, and its events appear in Today next to your own. Each calendar can have its own colour, name and reminder. To change one of its events, use the calendar's own app.
Uninstall it from Windows Settings, under Apps. The taskbar and Start menu come back on their own, even if Glassline was running.
Yes. In Glassline Settings, under General, press Save Backup: your settings, the dock, your own events and what Search has learned go into one file. After a reinstall, or on the other PC, press Load Backup and choose that file.
