## To use

The simplest way to use ClippedTB is by simply entering margins and corner radius.

 - **Margins** - controls how many pixels to remove from each side of the taskbar, creating a margin around it that you can see but cannot click through.

 -  **Corner Radius** - adjusts how round the corners of the taskbar should be.

## Known issues

- The auto-hide taskbar cannot be perfectly clipped when a UWP goes into its full-screen mode.

- Restart dwm will possibly crash ClippedTB when you recently have added/removed monitors

## Limitations

- Cannot split taskbars

- Cannot adjust hittest retangles

- Only accept one clip region
