Leaving Windows Taskbar visible

When you use full-screen game board you may choose whether Four Winds tries to leave room for Windows Taskbar (the default), or whether the Taskbar is covered (in which case you need to bring it forth by pressing Ctrl+Esc). Note that even if the setting is enabled, it is not always possible to leave room for Taskbar.

To leave Windows Taskbar visible in full-screen game boards:

Choose Preferences on the File menu.
Choose General under the User Interface section in the category tree of the Preferences dialog box.
Click the Leave Taskbar box to enable or disable this feature.
