I have a new Fujitsu Lifebook 4010 and am learning to use a tablet PC which
is new to me. I have one annoyance which I am interested if there is a
known solution. This does not appear to be a Fujitsu issue. It's probably
not a tablet issue. It is probably a portrait orientation issue.
I operate with the taskbar on the left side of the display when the tablet
is either in portrait or landscape orientation. I also set the taskbar to
auto hide to give me more working area. I prefer the left side taskbar for
its conveniences.
In landscape mode I can unhide the taskbar by moving the pointer to the left
side of the display. The unhide works from the top to the bottom of the
display.
However, in portrait mode the unhide will work at the lower portion of the
taskbar but not at the top. It appears that the unhide sensitivity is only
to the extent that it would be if the orientation were landscape. For
example, for 1020x768 and 768x1024, the sensitivity in portrait mode appears
to be only for the lower 768 pixels out of 1024.
Because I am usually going to the top of the taskbar for either the start
button or the quick launch icons, this failure is a big annoyance!
Is this a known issue? Is there a hotfix for it?
